Alabama Street Paving

Depending on the weather, Alabama Street will be paved beginning Tuesday, November 6, and it will be completed by Saturday, November 10. To minimize disruption and to reduce conflicts with pedestrians and vehicles, the paving will be done in the evening, beginning at 8:00 p.m. and continuing to 6:00 a.m. each day until it is completed. Paving will start at Market Street and continue north to North Street over that 3 to 5 day period or approximately 2 to 3 nights. The approaches on the side streets will be completed during the rest of the week.

Also, while crews pave the lanes on Alabama, through traffic may be affected at various intersections. Those include North Street, Michigan Street, Vermont Street, New York Street, Ohio Street and Market Street.

Finishing Touches

Most of the “hardscape” items (pavement, lighting) will be completed by the end of the year. The “softscape” (trees and perennials) and the intersection treatments will be installed in late spring 2008.
