Project Background Information

 

The City of Fargo, NDDOT, and Metro COG have partnered to examine University Drive and 10th Street in Fargo. The study focuses on ways to improve these critical corridors and evaluates the existing one-way pair between 13th Avenue S and 19th Avenue N. University Drive carries southbound traffic, while 10th Street carries northbound traffic. This segment is designated as US Highway 81. These corridors are significant north-south roadways that provide access to key areas, including downtown, NDSU, the FARGODOME, the Sanford Health Athletic Complex, multiple core neighborhoods, several schools, and the north Fargo Sanford Health campus.

Project Objective

 

The primary objective of the study is to identify roadway improvements that can mitigate safety, speeding, traffic flow issues, and accommodate multiple modes of transportation. A major component of the study assesses the value of converting the one-way pair to two-way operations and the impacts such a change
would have on roadway users, residents, and businesses. Other improvement types, including those that maintain the existing one-way pair, are also considered.
