Opelika Road will be getting a facelift.
The Auburn City Council approved phase one of the Renew Opelika Road Project on Nov. 4.
Assistant City Manager Kevin Cowper said two years of planning went into the project.
Upgrades including new crosswalks, traffic signals, medians and sidewalks will be added to Opelika Road in three phases.
Phase one, which will start early 2015, will cost $1.5 million and will focus on Opelika Road between Gay and Ross Streets.
