posted on 10/6/2023

Updated design plans for the Court and Union streets reconstruction project were unveiled at a Sept. 21 neighborhood meeting at Community Services’ Facilities, Grounds and Cemetery office at 145 Court St.

At the meeting, engineers from the city and Wright-Pierce, the contracted design consultant, presented the updated designs, which are 90% complete. Click here to view the meeting presentation slides.

The design elements include roadway improvements, including adding sidewalks and bike lanes, and utility improvements, such as replacing the water main and improving drainage and sewer mains.

Next steps

Project designs are anticipated to be finalized by the end of December. Once plans are finalized, the project would go out to bid, currently projected to occur in January 2024, with construction in the spring of 2024. The project is estimated to take two construction seasons to complete. The next neighborhood meeting will be a pre-construction meeting, anticipated to occur in the spring of 2024
