Project Overview 
The Elbow Road Extended Phase II-B & II-C project will realign Elbow Road into a four-lane section extending from Salem Road to Stumpy Lake. The project includes relocating the Elbow Road and Indian River Road intersection and providing alternative access for adjacent commercial, residential and recreational areas. A key feature of the project is the replacement of the existing 20-foot bridge over the North Landing River with a new 1,050-foot bridge that spans the wetlands and the 100-year floodplain.
