  6. Lindsay Road Improvements: Ocotillo Road to Hunt Highway

(Project Nos. ST2001.401 / CHN0246D / T024301C)

Construction has begun to widen and improve Lindsay Road, from Ocotillo Road to Hunt Highway, to four lanes (two lanes in each direction), with raised medians, bike lanes, center turn lane, curb, gutter, sidewalk, street lighting and drainage improvements. The project includes drainage improvements such as retention basins and concrete scuppers to accommodate future drainage needs in the project area. In addition, there will be improvements to traffic signals and the traffic signal interconnect, as well as new LED street lighting and conversion of overhead electricity to underground.

The project received federal funds for design and construction. Chandler City Council awarded professional services and construction agreements to start construction of the Lindsay Road Improvement project at their Jan. 22 meeting. Chandler has contracted with Achen-Gardner Construction to construct the improvements which are expected to take 26 months to complete.  

If you would like to receive project updates during construction or have questions regarding the project, please contact us.

Current Construction Information: (April 9, 2026)

Provided below is information on upcoming construction, but please remember schedules can be impacted by a variety of factors to include weather, materials scheduling, availability of resources, and coordination with others.

Lindsay Road, Ocotillo Road to Riggs Road:

  • Crews continue concrete work to reconstruct corner ramps and valley gutters on either side of Lindsay Road, from Chandler Heights to Ocotillo Road. To accommodate this planned work, a lane restriction is in place for northbound and southbound Lindsay Road traffic to shift traffic away from the work activity, as needed, and the following closures will be in place:
  • Glacier Place is currently closed, during work hours only, on the west side of Lindsay Road for crews to work on ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) corner ramps. This work is expected to be complete Friday, April 10.
  • Lynx Place is currently closed on the west side of Lindsay Road until approximately April 22 for crews to reconstruct ADA corner ramps and the concrete valley gutter across Lynx Place. Avian Meadows residents may use Brooks Farm Road to access Lindsay Road during this work, and the closure remains in place 24/7 to accommodate work and time for the concrete to cure.
  • Lynx Place is also currently closed on the east side of Lindsay Road with this work expected to be complete, and Lynx Place reopened by Monday, April 13.  
  • Once Lynx Place is reopened on the east side of Lindsay Road, Crescent Way will be closed, scheduled for Monday, April 13, for crews to reconstruct the concrete corner ramps and valley gutter. Crescent Way is expected to be closed 2-3 weeks for this work and Avian Trails residents may use Lynx Place for access to Lindsay Road during this time.
  • Crews also continue work on ADA corner ramps and valley gutters on the east side of Lindsay Road at the north maintenance entrance to Veterans Oasis Park, and to the Chandler Nature Center/Chandler Heights Police Substation. The north maintenance entrance is expected to reopen on Monday, April 13, and the entrance to the Chandler Nature Center/Chandler Heights Police Substation is expected to reopen approximately April 22.
  • Scheduled to begin Monday, April 13, crews will begin clearing of the area for the future retention basin on the southeast corner of Lindsay Road and Via de Arboles.

Lindsay Road, Riggs Road to Hunt Highway:
