Chandler Heights Road Improvement Project: Gilbert Rd. to Val Vista Dr.

(Project Nos. ST1804.401 / CHN0244D / T020301C)

Construction begins 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 (Feb. 7, 2025):

  • Scheduled for Monday, Feb. 10, crews will begin work on the north side of Chandler Heights Road from east of Lindsay Road to Gilbert Road to conduct removals and reconstruct concrete ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) ramps.
