Martin Luther King Drive Streetscape - Shug to Donahue - City of Auburn

This project will enhance the streetscape along Martin Luther King Drive between Shug Jordan Parkway and Donahue Drive by adding 10-foot-wide sidewalk, decorative pedestrian lighting, landscaping, medians, and storm and sanitary extensions as well as installing a new water main. This project will tie into the new Martin Luther King Drive Multi-Use Path. The Martin Luther King Drive Multi-Use Path Project consisted of the construction of a multi-use path between Webster Road and the Shug Jordan Parkway Overpass. Together, these two projects will create a 2-mile-long route for the people who live along Martin Luther King Drive to connect with downtown and Auburn University. The project is included in the city's 2022-2027 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). As of July 20, 2023, an engineer and contractor have been selected for the project. The water main construction along this segment is being installed. The streetscape portion will begin when the water main scope is completed but is slated for 3rd quarter 2023. Construction is expected to be completed in February 2024, per owner. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
