The $24.6 million project replaced the traditional intersection with a diverging diamond interchange, reconstructed the northbound bypass lane and added a southbound bypass lane.
The project also constructed right-turn lanes and dual left-turn lanes at the Parmer Lane and North Lamar Boulevard intersection, and improved bicycle and pedestrian paths throughout the corridor.
