Initial phase will be sidewalk work

 

The construction phase of the Charlotte Street road diet is scheduled to begin in February and continue through May.

 

The first phase of construction will entail a lane closure as contractors reconstruct portions of the sidewalk on the north end of Charlotte street near Edwin Place. Once complete, repaving of the road will take place at night for approximately four weeks.

 

Background

Council allocated $1.25 million for the design and construction of this project. This Capital Improvement Project will include milling and repaving Charlotte Street as well as a 4-to-3 lane conversion from approximately Chestnut Street to Edwin Place. Other components of the project include bike access improvements and spot sidewalk safety improvements.
