G5 Purpose and need:
|
The reconstruction of 199th Street as an expandable 2 lane roadway, between the eastern terminus of the 199th and Ridgeview Road Round-a-bout, and Renner Road is necessary to safely accommodate the increasing traffic in this expanding area of Johnson County. Trucks, from US 69 to US 169 and beyond, will be carried on an improved roadway instead of an open ditch 2 lane road with no shoulders and substandard roadside hazards. The road will also significantly increase safety for several nearby schools and local drivers.The wide shoulders will extend the existing system west of Ridgevie.

This project would greatly improve the safety at the intersection of 199th and Ridgeview where the Spring Hill High School is located. There is a lot of traffic when school is in session and during school events.

Donna Abbott said...
Much needed for traffic flow and the amount of large trucks and small bicycles that travel on 199th. Crossing 199th at ridgeview is near impossible during congested times. New school district facilites being built currently on 199th as well.

Any opportunity to improve freight and traffic should be done.

Susan Curtis said...
This improvement is needed. Heavy truck traffic is increasing on 199th and bicycle traffic is heavy during nice weather. The combination is not a good one on this narrow road. With the expanding school campus, we can only expect further increases traffic.

With the continued development along this stretch of road, including the new school buildings, 199th street is in desperate need of improvements. Additionally as traffic increases due to the future middle school off 199th and Ridgeview and the Large truck traffic from the intermodal in Edgerton, we need this done now before it becomes reactive instead of proactive.

Just moved to SH and from my observations the city is at the precipace of becoming a bedroom community for the KC metro. Olathe is moving South, Gardner is moving East and people will learn that SH is ready to boom. Further we see dozens of bikers on unimproved roads without bike lanes or shoulders and traffic is beginning to stress current infrastructure. Without improvements now we will be in a continual catchup mode and challenged for services and retail/commercial investments.

This is a much needed improvement to keep all the families and bicyclists safe in this area. The high school already causes massive, unsafe congestion. The new middle school and admin buildings will add to this.

Sarah Stoughton said...
We need to have this done to improve the safety of 199th street. The number of bicyclists that use this road at all times of the day, especially during high traffic times, reinforces the need to have a widened road with bike lane. There have been numerous times in my short time living off this road where I have nearly been hit by a car passing a bike when they shouldn’t have. We need this done and now!

This road improvement is highly recommended to alleviate any possible accidents near the growing USD 230 High School and District buildings!

Rush hour or commute traffic is quite busy along the stretch of road heading towards schools, Spring Hill, And Olathe. The steep roadway drop offs and short or non-existent turn lanes make for hazardous conditions in good weather, especially with the volume of young drivers near the high school. I think this would be a fabulous enhancement from a safety and high traffic use perspective.

This stretch of the road is beginning to be unsafe with the continued development along this road, including the new school buildings. 199th street is in desperate need of improvements. Traffic will only increase due to the future middle school off 199th, large trucks and increased bicyclists.

Please please please approve this plan! I can not stress enough the danger of this intersection due to two schools and numerous surrounding neighborhoods that continue to grow. I personally have been in an accident in the area of 199th of Ridgeview as the sun with morning flood of cars (including high school drivers) makes this area congested and dangerous.

Consider 199th between Ridgeview and Renner an essential highway project. The benefits and safety features are listed in the proposal. This transportation route will be an up and coming commercial highway for increased traffic resulting from business, educational and residential development.
10/8/2020 5:28:44 PM
Todd rose said...
You should actually make Ridgeview between 199th and 191st 4 lanes since the traffic from the Elementary school and the high school always bottle necks right there.
10/8/2020 5:38:29 PM
Justin Jenkins said...
I agree this road need the expanded shoulder and space maybe a bike path connecting it to schools for people that live close for safe route for kids riding bikes to school

This improvement would greatly help our community. I will have a new driver going to that High School next year and this intersection is difficult even for us experienced drivers.
10/8/2020 5:50:51 PM
Hendrik Terblanche said...
We are trapped by this single lane road currently. Not only can we not finish sidewalks to the high school until the road is in place, but forget about turning East on 199th during a school morning. We desperately need more lanes and even a traffic circle or some form of traffic control. Thanks!
10/8/2020 6:17:07 PM
Melanie Nieznajko said...
Please approve this project! This is a major intersection when school is in session, and this currently puts young drivers in a very dangerous situation. This street is also home to many large trucks and bicyclists year round. This is very much needed for safety in this area!

Lori James said...
With this proposal the safety to all motorized and bicycle traffic is essential. I would also like to see a traffic light at 199th and Ridgeview. This intersection is so dangerous to all traffic. I am difficulty with entrance to Norton Street and 199th Street, the west bound turn lane onto Norton is so short that I have been almost rear ended multiple times. Also trying to enter from the going east bound, I have on multiple occasions, have had to swerve to miss being hit head-on.

We need your help! Please approve this project! We are a fast paced growing community and see no end to our growth in the near future. This area is heavy with school traffic with an elementary school and high school and soon to e middle school. We also have district department building and board office buildings be built. Many housing developments in the area. Heavy truck traffic from the Edgerton intermodal and warehouse growth. Several businesses want to come to Spring Hill but we need road improvements please help us with a YES vote.

Erich Volkman said...
The heavy elementary, high school and truck traffic from inter modal makes this section of road hazardous. Shoulders, turn lanes or a round about at the intersection 199th and Ridgeview would drastically improve the safety for everyone using this road.
10/8/2020 7:23:50 PM
Jeremy Ell said...
I’m mainly reinforcing what has been stated in the comments already, but this proposal looks to improve on a section of road and numerous intersections which pose a daily hazard to those who currently use it. For our region, this is a high traffic roadway for both motorists and bicyclists, and projections of new area construction (both residential and commercial) only look to degrade the possibility of safe travel use. The road is currently not wide enough for two vehicles and a cyclist/pedestrian which I view as a life safety concern especially considering the high-volume of inexperienced drivers for the adjoining high school. With a steep ditch located 6-12” off the road surface, there is little margin for error, and I’ve personally encountered a few vehicles stuck in the ditch as a result. Please consider this travel route for improvement for the safety of our community and the others who utilize it.

Spring Hill is growing rapidly. This stretch of road is currently narrow and not safe for the traffic it sees...cars, commercial trucks, bicycles. It is especially worrisome when there is heavy traffic due to the high school classes or other activities and many young drivers.
10/8/2020 8:18:10 PM
Laurie Brueckner said...
199th is very narrow and dangerous. And with increasing semi traffic it needs to widened.
10/8/2020 9:59:51 PM
Rachel Lake said...
I would love to see this improvement, as it is a very dangerous road with the high school traffic. It is very difficult to navigate when trying to turn left headed south off of Ridgeview onto 199th. There are many bicyclists in this area, as well with very narrow roads. My high school age children are also unable to walk to school from the Prairie Ridge neighborhood behind the high school, due to the narrow roads and unsafe walking conditions.

I would like the 199th Street
Ridgeview/Renner Road project to take priority. I have been driving this intersection north on Ridgeview across 199th to/from work for the past 5+ years. The traffic has significantly increased with our community. When school is in session, this intersection is a dangerous concoction of school buses, inexperienced young teen drivers, large trucks, cars, cyclists, and the occasional pedestrian. I have witnessed too many near accidents as well as a couple actual crashes. Its only worse when you add rain, snow or ice. Turning left or going straight is a nightmare!!
Lets not wait for an fatality before taking care of this intersection and make it safe to navigate.
Thanks!

This is too small a project to have any real impact on the traffic on this street. All of 199th needs to be redone this section alone provides very little improvement on the road 199th over all.

Jill Frank said...
In the 10 years I have lived in spring hill, Ive seen numerous traffic accidents in this road segment. These are due to increased use by teachers, students, and semis. This improvement would help all residents of spring hill to be safer travelling on this road segment.

Well its a start but we really need to get all of Ridgeview Rd. done first since theyre will be 3 schools abutting up to Ridgeview once they finish the new middle school.The traffic on Ridgeview gets bad when school is in and we need bike lanes so the cyclist arent such a hazard to traffic on Ridgeview.
10/9/2020 6:59:54 AM
Kevin Herndon said...
This road is desperate need of be corrected. As Spring Hill is the #1 City for growth our roads are the biggest impacted areas. We need this to be a safe travel area for the High School Kids and the parents driving the Elementary and Middle kids to School.
10/9/2020 8:27:59 AM
Yvonne Roeder said...
This would be a great improvement to 199th. Increased traffic growth over the past 11 yrs in this area has made 199th & Ridgeview dangerous and a roundabout would be very helpful with the flow of traffic and make 199th and Rigeview safe.

I understand the improvements are needed. I just hope the people it effects by taking their land and changing terrain of yards are compensated well since they were there long before the high school and all the traffic.

This is a road that needs help. The High School is right there and several cyclist like to ride out there. Please make this happen and save lives and help other stay safe.

Beth Waddle said...
This stretch of road concerned me even before I had high school drivers, but having students driving to and from the high school there made me all the more aware of the level of congestion that occurs before and after school as well as during school events. So much traffic, a high percentage of younger and inexperienced drivers, along with the addition of a new school and businesses necessitate improvements to increase safety for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians, and also to facilitate accessibility that is congruent with the amount and flow of traffic through this area. Though my kids have graduated and no longer travel this road daily, we owe it to the students, teachers, businesses, local residents and community at large to advocate for every measure possible to ensure safe and reasonable access to the road and adjacent facilities.
