Fortune Road and Simpson Road Intersection Safety Improvements

This project was completed as of November 18, 2025.

This crash-reduction safety project included intersection improvements at Fortune Road and Simpson Road.

The total project length was approximately 5,200 feet. Along Fortune Road, the project length was about 1,700 feet from Lakeside Drive to La Fortuna Boulevard. Along Simpson Road, the project length was about 3,500 feet from south of Marisol Loop to south of Harbor Town Drive.

The project included roadway widening to accommodate raised medians, additional turn lanes, and bike lanes while converting what had been classified as a rural roadway into an urban roadway. The improvements to the western leg of the intersection included a 6–10 foot wide pedestrian path (approximately 1,000 ft. from the intersection), a dedicated right turn lane, bike lane, two eastbound through lanes, dual left turn lanes, a raised median, two westbound through lanes, and a bike lane.

The improvements to the eastern leg of the intersection included a 6–10 foot wide pedestrian path (approximately 1,000 ft. from the intersection), a raised median, a left turn lane, two westbound through lanes, and a free-flow right turn lane. The northern leg of the intersection included a sidewalk, dual right turn lanes, a bike lane, two southbound through lanes, dual left turn lanes, a raised median, two northbound through lanes, and a bike lane.

The intersection improvements were constructed in tandem with the Simpson Road South project.
