The Sharpe’s Corner Vicinity Improvements Project updated an existing SR 20 signaled intersection and bypass lane located near the popular beach town of Anacortes, WA in the span of just 3 months. With over 35,000 vehicles a day traveling at high speeds through the existing intersection, Construction of the Sharpe’s corner round-a-bout was essential for increasing the safety of the traveling public and surrounding businesses while also alleviating traffic congestion. The entire project consisted of crews and key subcontractors working 7 days a week, 24 hours per day to demolish the existing road, re-grade, update and install 2000 LF of storm sewer lines and associated structures, complete 2/3rds of a mile of shoulder improvements, install 2 new round-abouts, and all while maintaining traffic flow of up to 25,000 vehicles/day through the construction zone.
