Lacy Road: Fitchrona to Seminole Highway

The City of Fitchburg is planning improvements to Lacy Road, from Fitchrona Rd to the Seminole Highway. Project concepts include:
  • Conversion of the rural roadway to an urban roadway with curb and gutter and storm sewer. The roadway concept includes 1 vehicle lane and 1 bicycle lane in each direction, 1 multiuse path on the north side, with a median in some locations.
  • Streetlight improvements
  • Stormwater improvements
  • Intersection control changes at Seminole Hwy & Lacy Rd
West Lacy Reconstruction

The project is currently in the design phase. Construction is anticipated in 2022. A virtual public meeting was held on February 17, 2021 from 5:30-7:00 PM to share additional detail on project concepts and to obtain feedback.  A second public meeting was held on August 31, 2021 at 5:30 PM to share an updated design of the corridor and present proposed intersection control options for the intersection of Lacy Rd & Seminole Hwy. Feedback will be incorporated into the design and presented to Council along with the Transportation Project Plan in October.
