A Liberty Township intersection will be closed for the next month and a half to enable construction of a new roundabout.

According to the office of the Delaware County Engineer, the Liberty Road/Salisbury Drive roundabout will include north turn lanes at the intersection of Liberty Road and Libertydale Drive/St. Joan of Arc driveway. The project will connect the existing shared use path on Salisbury Drive to the sidewalks on Libertydale Drive.

The proposed Project improvements to Liberty Road will begin approximately 500 feet south of the intersection with Libertydale Drive to approximately 750 feet north of the intersection of Salisbury Drive. The proposed improvements to Salisbury Drive end approximately 300 feet from the intersection with Liberty Road. The proposed improvements to Libertydale Drive will end approximately 140 feet from the intersection with Liberty Road.

The current cost of construction is approximately $1.75 million dollars.

A visual representation of the roundabout project can be found here.

The detour will last through the end of October. A map of the detour route can be accessed here.
