Rayford Road improvements

A project will widen Rayford Road to four lanes between an area 40 feet east of Waterbend Cove and approximately 400 feet east of Birnham Woods Drive. It includes creating two new eastbound travel lanes from Waterbend to the Rayford intersection with Birnham Woods and using the existing road for the westbound lanes. The project also includes constructing a traffic signal at the Rayford-Birnham Woods intersection and widening Birnham Woods by 600 feet north and south of Rayford. As of late March, the contractor was working on the Rayford Road-Spring Trails Park Drive intersection. Work also started on the new bridge for the eastbound lanes just east of Spring Trails Park Drive. County officials said detours will be established as concrete pavement work continues at the intersections.
