What to expect during construction
Construction in Phase 2 will occur along Dayton Street between 5th Ave and 9th Ave and will include single-lane closures on Dayton Street, intermittent intersection closures, and other traffic impacts. As a refresher, we will be replacing aging and undersized utilities along Dayton Street. Improvements will include:
· Adding stormwater pipe capacity to reduce flooding downtown during heavy rainstorms
· Sewer pipe repairs and replacing potable water pipes that are nearing the end of their lifespan
· Road Restoration and replacing the 5th Ave and Dayton Street intersection and concrete crosswalks
· Upgrading curb ramps to be ADA-accessible at the intersections of Dayton Street and 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th Avenues
· Adding a sidewalk along the south side of Dayton Street from 7th Ave to 8th Ave, where there currently is no sidewalk.
