Orchard Street Realignment Study, Victory Road to Gowen Road

The Orchard Street Realignment Study recommendation includes:

• Shifting Orchard St. to the west.
• Constructing a four-lane roadway with a raised median.
• Adding roundabouts to the Diamond St., Dorman St., and Gowen Road intersections.
• The existing Orchard Street/Gowen Road/Harvard Street intersection would be reconfigured and realigned to tie into a realigned Gowen Road.
• Shared use paths would be constructed on both sides of Orchard Street and on the north side of Gowen Road.

Project Purpose
