About the Harrison Street Project
Sarpy County is collaborating with the City of Omaha to transform a mile-long stretch of Harrison Street from 147th to 157th streets. The existing two-lane road is being upgraded to a four-lane arterial street with turn lanes and medians. The expansion will improve safety and travel times in the area.
The $10-million, 2-year project is expected to be completed in late 2019.
