Information board explaining traffic control during construction on Chalk Bluff Road. Drivers may encounter one-lane traffic controlled by flaggers or a pilot car. Instructions include stopping when directed, proceeding slowly when signaled, watching for workers and equipment, following the pilot car, not passing the pilot car, and maintaining safe following distances. Illustrations show flagger-controlled traffic and a pilot car convoy through a work zone. A moving one-lane road is described as a work-zone setup where traffic shifts through a single lane using cones and signs to maintain safety.
Timeline graphic showing major phases of the Chalk Bluff Road Improvements Project in 2026. Milestones include pre-construction activities (late April–early May), earthwork and utilities (mid-May–early August), road base construction (mid-July–late September), asphalt operations (late July–early October), final work (mid-September–November), and project completion (November 2026). The timeline is illustrated as a winding roadway connecting each project phase.

Engineering cross-section graphic comparing the existing and proposed roadway design for the Chalk Bluff Road Improvements Project. The existing roadway consists of a 24-foot-wide paved travel way with varying asphalt thickness (1.5 to 6 inches), 2 to 6 inches of crushed base, and side slopes ranging from 2:1 to 6:1. The proposed roadway expands to a 32-foot-wide paved section with two 12-foot travel lanes and 4-foot shoulders on each side. The new design includes 4 inches of hot mix asphalt, 3 inches of crushed base, and an 8-inch cement-treated base, with side slopes limited to a maximum of 4:1. The illustration uses vehicle graphics and labeled layers to show the roadway widening and structural improvements.
