In 2005, the City of Lawrence contracted BG Consultants for transportation engineering services at the intersection of 23rd (K-10) and Harper Streets. The project was funded through KDOT’s Geometric Improvement program. BG Consultants provided a full range of surveying and transportation design services to prepare construction plans compliant with KDOT requirements.

The geometric configuration and signalization were the primary elements under consideration. The preliminary traffic signals BG designed were time-based, coordinated with the traffic signal at the 23rd and Haskell intersection to improve the efficiency of traffic flow along the 23rd Street corridor, as well as enhance public safety.
