August 8, 2024 Update

Traffic has shifted to the northwest side of West Washington Avenue, with access to driveways on the southeast side of the street through the construction site. We will continue to have one lane in each direction divided by flexposts with a stop sign at Henry for pedestrians and construction traffic. This general configuration will stay the same for the remainder of the project. In the coming weeks, the contractor will finish installing water main on the northeast end of the project and then move southwest to complete sanitary and storm replacements.
