Pavement History The streets within Halls Dover Acres were built in 1976. The streets received an overlay improvement in 1990, which included widening the pavement width to 24 feet. Following the overlay, crack seal / seal coat improvements were completed in 1996 and 2004. Maintenance crews have performed patching over the last several years, including extensive patching in 2023. Existing Conditions The streets are 24 feet wide rural sections with drainage swales adjacent to the roadway, totaling 0.98 miles in length. Traffic counts have not been taken, but Staff anticipates higher than typical neighborhood traffic along 157th Lane, due to the daycare center located at the intersection of 157th Lane and Nowthen Boulevard, but not rising to the level of a collector street. Sewer and water exist in the subdivision to the east, but the Halls Dover Acres subdivision is not located within the MUSA. The 2040 Comprehensive Plan proposed water system improvements does include extending 12-inch trunk watermain along 157 th lane from Potassium Street to Nowthen Boulevard as part of a trunk system loop. This trunk watermain extension is proposed to occur as part of this project.
