Daniel Drive Reconstruction
Daniel Drive is a well-traveled neighborhood route, especially for families walking to the nearby elementary school. Years of wear created ponding, pavement failures, and accessibility issues. Westra reshaped the corridor to improve safety, mobility, and drainage, completing the work within the school’s limited summer construction window.

Threading a 41-foot collector into a 60-foot ROW required precision. Through split-curb layouts and careful sidewalk grading, Westra delivered a design that maintained accessibility and blended seamlessly with nearby homes. The improved Daniel Drive now offers a smoother, safer, and more reliable path for families and daily school traffic.
