3 month construction project to begin on 17th Street

Construction on 17th Street from Holmes Avenue to Woodruff Avenue will begin on Monday, June 18.

Crews will be removing and replacing concrete, installing a new median curb, milling and paving the roadway, seal coating and adjusting the valves and concrete collars.

Milling and paving operations will take place at night.

Traffic will be reduced to one lane in each direction between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., 7:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. weekdays, and all day on Sundays.

All local businesses in the area will be accessible during construction, barring unforeseen conditions.

Pedestrian detours will be set up during different work phases to promote safety, in addition to expediting the project schedule.

The anticipated completion time is three months.
