(Project Nos. ST1804.401 / CHN0244D / T020301C)
Construction continues to widen Chandler Heights Road from Gilbert Road to Val Vista Drive to four lanes (two lanes in each direction) with raised medians, bike lanes, center turn lane, curb, gutter, sidewalk, street lighting, drainage improvements and utility relocations for the project. Chandler has contracted with Sunland Asphalt to construct the improvements which are expected to take 12 months to complete.
The project includes any necessary utility relocations, drainage improvements such as retention basins and concrete scuppers throughout the project limits, as well as traffic signal improvements at the Chandler Heights Road and Lindsay Road intersection, new street lighting (LED) and traffic signal interconnect. Project exhibits are available below.
Current Construction Information (August 20, 2025):
- Lane reductions are in place on Chandler Heights Road from Gilbert Road to Val Vista Drive, with traffic shifted away from the work activity, and shifted to the north side of the road from Gemstone to 150th Street.
- Scheduled to take place August 25-27, paving crews will pave the surface course (top layer) of asphalt on Chandler Heights Road, from Lindsay Road to Val Vista Drive. As the paving crosses side streets or driveways, there may be brief periods where access is restricted, but crews will work to expedite this activity to the extent possible. Following paving, striping will take place and adjustment of utilities, such as manholes and valves, to make them flush with the new asphalt surface.
- Scheduled to take place from approximately 3 a.m. to 6 a.m., early Tuesday morning, August 26, Lindsay Road traffic will be restricted at the Chandler Heights Road intersection, with north and south bound Lindsay Road traffic detoured away from the paving activity in the intersection. Chandler Heights Road will permit east and west bound traffic but traffic will not be permitted north or south through the intersection on Lindsay Road. These restrictions at the intersection are required for paving crews to pave through the intersection, and this work is being conducted in the early morning hours in an effort to reduce disruption to the traveling public.
- Crews continue to install brick pavers on the west and east side of the Lindsay Road and Chandler Heights Road intersection.
- Landscape crews continue with installation of irrigation and landscape in median islands.
- Concrete crews continue to work on sidewalk and repair items throughout the project area.
- Electric crews continue intermittent work at the Chandler Heights Road/Lindsay Road intersection to complete traffic signal work.
- Business and resident access is being maintained during this work.
Thank you for your patience during this work.
