New Traffic Pattern at U.S. Route 160 & Christian County Route AA in Nixa

When: 5 a.m. Thursday, October 24

Details: Contractor crews to turn on new signals and open new Continuous Green-T Intersection at U.S. Route 160 and Christian County Route AA in Nixa on Thursday, October 24. A Continuous Green-T Intersection has northbound Route 160 continuing straight without stopping. New traffic signals are installed at southbound Route 160 and the left turn lanes of northbound Route 160 and Route AA. Traffic traveling southbound Route 160 will no longer be able to turn left onto Guin Road, but must continue southbound to use the U-turn at Route CC and then travel northbound Route 160 to access Guin Road. On the east side of Route 160, Guin Road has been converted to a right-in / right-out intersection. Traffic wanting to go southbound Route 160 from Guin Road will need to turn right and use the U-turn at Farm Road 192.

New Traffic Pattern at U.S. Route 160 & Christian County Route CC

When: 8 p.m. Monday Night, July 29th

Details: Contractor crews to turn on new signals and open new Continuous Flow Intersection at U.S. Route 160 and Christian County Route CC in Nixa. A Continuous Flow Intersection has traffic turning left placed to the left of oncoming traffic, opposite where it is normally. This removes the conflict between on-coming traffic and traffic turning left. Vehicles turning left access the lane a few hundred feet in front of the intersection. Click here to learn more about Continuous Flow intersections and watch a video showing how the intersection will function. This is part of the Route 160 Intersection Improvements Project.

Traffic Impacts:

  • New traffic pattern at Route 160 and Route CC in Nixa
  • Route 60 to Route CC dual left-turn traffic is placed left of oncoming traffic. Vehicles turning left will access the new lane a few hundred feet in front of the intersection.
  • Westbound Route CC will use the new lane to merge onto Route 160
  • Southbound Route 160 U-turn to northbound Route 160 will be farther south of dual left-turn lanes
