Other improvements: constructed noise barrier walls along the corridor, installed fencing and Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) devices, and reconstructed the overpasses between Floribraska Avenue and Hillsborough Avenue.*Construction cost included original construction contract amount plus approved contract changes. It did not include inspection oversight.
