About the Duck Creek Connector project

The purpose of the Duck Creek Connector project is to:

• Improve access and mobility in the Red Bank Expressway/Madison Road area 

• Provide a connection between existing and planned development along Medpace Way, Duck Creek Road and Red Bank Expressway;

• Increase pedestrian and bike mobility opportunities

The Duck Creek Connector is being developed as a design/build project which means initial design work will be approved and then construction on those initial phases of the project can begin even while future design work is being completed. One firm will be responsible for both designing and building the roadway.

 

This method of project management significantly shortens the time required to complete construction projects. Detailed plans for the Connector will be developed in early 2016; construction will begin in the spring and the project will be completed by late fall.
