Neelys Bend Road and Cheyenne Boulevard - Madison, TN
Intersection Improvement

Collier Engineering provided engineering design and construction management for roadway and pedestrian improvements at the intersection of Neelys Bend Road and Cheyenne Boulevard in Davidson County, Tennessee. The project spans over one-third of a mile of Neelys Bend Road and a quarter-mile of Cheyenne Boulevard. Improvements include additional turn lanes for traffic generated by the nearby schools, along with new traffic/pedestrian signals, crosswalks, and wider sidewalks along Neelys Bend Road.  The intersection of Neelys Bend Circle and Neelys Bend Road was relocated to the entrance of Neely’s Bend Elementary School to improve traffic flow.  The relocation and installation of a new bus stop and shelter at the intersection was coordinated with Metro Transit Authority. The project grading included the necessary roadway ditches for stormwater drainage, and side slope and driveway adjustments for roadway improvements. We performed a hydraulic analysis and site assessment to confirm the project would not negatively impact downstream structures, nearby streams, or existing outfalls. We developed erosion prevention and sediment control plans to manage all stormwater at the project site. All appropriate state environmental agencies permitted the project, and Collier Engineering coordinated with local utilities.
