View full-size mapIn June 2024, the project team completed the Hwy 65 and Hwy 23 corridor study in Mora. View our executive summary to learn more about the study, what we heard from the community and next steps.

In 2030, we plan to make improvements and reconstruct portions of Hwy 65 and Hwy 23. Bookmark this site and check back again for future updates.

Study goals

  • Understand corridor needs
  • Identify future improvements
  • Develop an ultimate corridor vision

Your input helped us

  • Define the problem
  • Establish project goals
  • Develop alternative design concepts
  • Determine a vision for Hwy 65 and Hwy 23

Recommended corridor visions

The core subarea is complex and was the main focus of the study. Additionally, there were three outer intersections where existing issues were identified and potential improvement were evaluated. A summary of the recommended vision for each subarea is described below:

Core Mora subarea

A roundabout corridor is recommended, featuring single-lane roundabouts at Union St./Division St., Clark St., and at Forest Ave. Paved trail facilities on both sides of the highway are included, with enhanced pedestrian crossing systems included at several key locations. Frontage road reconfigurations and impacts are expected in several areas. This vision is planned for construction in 2030-2031.

South subarea

A single-lane roundabout is recommended at the intersection of Hwy 23/65 and Dala Ln., replacing an existing traffic signal. The roundabout will improve intersection safety, operate with less delay, and improve pedestrian safety. This improvement is planned for construction in 2030-2031. Click here to view recommended improvements for the outer project subareas.

North and east subareas

A single-lane roundabout is recommended at the intersections of Hwy 65 at 9th St., and at Hwy 23 at Co. Rd. 71/Mahogany St. These projects are not programmed for a specific year and may be prioritized as area development increases or if safety issues arise.
