July Street Update Supplement
Preventative maintenance on streets slated for the slurry seal is expected to occur between July 25th and Juily 28th.
Ingalls Street and Abbey Lane are slated for resurfacing. This will include some curb replacement, milling of the top asphalt layer, and replacement with new asphalt. Ingalls Street, between School and Fairchild is proposed for narrowing, which will include a new curb and sidewalk installation on the north side. This change will eliminate onstreet parking, increase pedestrian safety, and lower the design speed. This project is expected to be substantially complete in mid-September.
July Street Update
The city will be completing a ‘cape seal’ project on the following streets:
1st Street
2nd Street
3rd Street
Brady: Ingalls to Miller
Jennie Lane
Ford: Ingalls to Miller
Hayes: Ingalls to Miller
Mclain Street
Wade Street
The contractor intends to begin July 25th and complete all work by July 27th. The treatment will include chip seal application with a top coat of asphalt slurry. For those in the downtown area, this surface treatment will resemble the maintenance that occurred approximately eight years ago. This form of maintenance has an expected life of 5-10 years.
The application of this surface treatment will close the streets to through traffic and will limit drive access during application for limited periods of time.
