Southwest 53rd Street Railroad Overpass
Status: On Hold
Location: The intersection of SW 53rd Street and Reservoir Road.
Project Description: 53rd Street currently passes underneath a railroad trestle, the low point in the road causing flooding during rainy periods. Design and planning is intended to reroute traffic away from the trestle. The project was first proposed in 1988 and has been delayed several years due to funding issues. The project was awarded Metropolitan Planning Organization funds through the Federal Transit Administration.
Impacts: 53rd Street and the intersection of Reservoir will be effected during project implementation.
Schedule: The project is currently on hold.
Last update: March 2024
