Paving the way
City Street Department releases list of 2023 paving projects
More than 40 miles of roads are scheduled for an upgrade this spring and summer as the Street Department kicks off its annual paving projects with a budget of $4 million to improve local thoroughfares. Some of the preliminary work will begin this week with major paving set to begin in late April or early May.
"As much as we focus our efforts on building new roundabouts and increasing our multi-purpose trails and pathways, it is also important to keep our existing roadways in top condition," said Mayor Jim Brainard. "We work hard to create a high quality of life in Carmel and that includes having smooth, pothole-free roads on which to drive in our city."
