Westfield’s 161st Street and Carey Road roundabout open to traffic, under budget

0

Construction crews have finished the work at 161st Street and Carey Road and opened the new roundabout to traffic.

“Residents, as well as students, parents and staff at Carey Ridge Elementary School, have had to adapt to closures and altered traffic patterns for months,” said Westfield Mayor Andy Cook. “This roundabout will create a safer route for drivers and lessen the traffic congestion at that intersection. Our team worked hard to get this roundabout complete and I’m proud to say the project came under budget.”

The project cost was approximately $2.4 million and was paid for through the utility proceeds. E&B Paving started construction work in July. Crews will finish paving and light landscaping in the spring.
