This reconstruction project replaced aging asphalt pavement with new concrete pavement. It urbanized the existing rural roadway section by creating 2- and 3-lanes, lowering the road, eliminating narrow shoulders and steep slopes, and adding a shared-use path through the entire corridor. It also included curb and gutter and a new storm sewer and watermain. 

The City of Fargo contracted Apex to complete:

• Preliminary design
• Environmental clearance
• FAA coordination and permitting
• Public involvement process
• Final design and plan preparation

Significant coordination and involvement were required with the FAA and Fargo Airport Authority since Hector Airport property is adjacent to the roadway and North University Drive crosses the Runway Protection Zone for Runway 9/27.
