4th Street Improvements Project

Scope of Work

The scope of work for the 4th Street Improvements Project includes reconstruction of 4th Street from Clarke Avenue to Garfield Avenue and the reconstruction of State Avenue from 4th Street to 5th Street.  Storm sewer improvements will be made along 4th Street from Clark Avenue to approximately 300 feet east of State Avenue.  Sanitary sewer and water main improvements will be made on 4th Street from Clark Avenue to State Avenue and on State Avenue from 4th Street to 5th Street.  Other major improvements will include decorative historical lighting and new pavement markings which will improve parking in the downtown area. 

Project Schedule

The project is scheduled to begin the week of May 22, 2006 and the project completion date is October 27, 2006.  The project is divided into three phases. Click here for construction schedule and phases. The construction schedule is an estimate of progress and is subject to revision based upon weather delays and actual time of construction. 

Progress Meetings

Throughout the project, progress meetings will be held to provide updates to the project as well as provide an opportunity for the public to discuss issues with City staff, our consulting engineers, and the contractor.  The meetings will be held on the 1st and the 15th of each month during construction.  The meeting will be held on the following Monday, should the 1st or the 15th fall on a weekend.

Meetings will be at 10:00 a.m. on those days in the City Council Chambers. 

4th Street Updates
Work began on the 4th Street Project May 22nd, 2006 with barricades in place and the top level of blacktop being torn off surfaces from just west of Garfield to Orleans.

Surfaces were also torn up on State Street, between 4th and 5th.

Access to 4th Street is restricted between LaDelle and Orleans with the

4th & Orleans intersection being blocked so as not to allow through traffic onto 4th from an entrance on 4th & LaDelle.

North and South traffic on Orleans is blocked to 4th and State is blocked off on 5th Street.

Alley access is still available from LaDelle and Orleans but not from State. Stop Signs are at 5th & State, 5th & Orleans and 5th & LaDelle.

Detour route is up LaDelle at 4th to 5th Street and down 5th to Garfield.
