PURPOSE AND NEED

Burgess Road is a rural arterial that connects La Pine and US97 to Forest Service Road 42 and the Deschutes National Forest. Day Road is a north-south rural collector that connects residents north of La Pine to US 97, the City of La Pine and La Pine State Park. The intersection is currently stop sign-controlled on the north and south approaches. Turn lanes were added to the intersection on the north and south approaches in 2018.

The intersection has a history of crashes related to the stop-controlled approaches and poor sight distance. The intersection currently lacks adequate traffic control to manage the moderately high volumes experienced at this location. The intersection also lacks appropriate pedestrian facilities.

SCOPE OF WORK

The Project scope includes:

  • Installing traffic signals on all approaches
  • Installing pedestrian walks, ramps and pushbuttons
  • Installing new Signs, Striping and Illumination
  • Clearing roadside obstructions

ESTIMATED COST AND SCHEDULE

The current estimated project cost is $910,000.

Anticipated project schedule:

  • Preliminary Engineering:      December 2025 – June 2026
  • Construction:                        July 2026 – December 2026
