S. Depeyster St.
Project Budget:
$550,000
Project
Schedule:
Design Start Date
January, 2010
Construction Start Date
May, 2011
Project Finish
April. 2012
This project includes reconstructing Alley 4 from S. Water Street to S.
Depeyster Street with new pavement, curbs, new storm sewer and catch basins,
defined walkable areas for pedestrians, lighting and relocation of overhead
utilities to underground.
The improvement will provide a twelve foot travel lane to
accommodate one way traffic and a four foot pedestrian walkway on each side of
the road. The pedestrian walkway and travel lane will be defined using texture
and color in the pavement instead of curbing.
The existing alley pavement is in poor condition and with the Phoenix project
nearing completion, the alley can be improved without being damaged from
construction. This project is part of the overall downtown master plan to
connect parking resources to the street grid with safe, well-lit travelways.
The City has submitted for a grant through the Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC)
for assistance in paying for the design and construction of this improvement.
