(COLUMBIA, MO) ~ Columbia, MO - The City of Columbia Public Works department has announced that construction for a raised pedestrian crossing on Northland Drive at the Bear Creek Trail will begin on Monday, Sept. 23 at 7 a.m. The project is being undertaken by Cook Concrete, the contractor for the city.
To facilitate the construction, both driving lanes of Northland Drive between Blue Ridge Road and Argyle Road will be closed to traffic. This means that drivers east of the closure will not be able to travel north on Northland Drive to reach Blue Ridge Road and will have to take an alternate route via Parker Street.

The raised pedestrian crossing is part of a series of traffic calming measures that were approved by the City Council during a public hearing held on May 15, 2023. Interested parties meetings were also held on Dec. 1, 2022 and Feb. 28, 2023.
In addition to the raised pedestrian crossing, eight speed humps were installed on Northland Drive by City of Columbia Public Works street crews on Oct. 4-5, 2023 as part of this project.
The total cost for these traffic calming measures, including the speed humps and crosswalk improvements at Bear Creek Trail, is $55,000. The funding for this project comes from the quarter-cent 2015 Capital Improvement Sales Tax extension.
Weather permitting, the work is expected to be completed by Friday, Sept. 27 at 5 p.m. Previous press releases regarding this project can be found at CoMo.gov/CMS/pressreleases/view.php?id=8567.
