Next week, we’ll start work on the NW corner of E John St to install conduits for the new signals. This work includes trenching in the street and will require closure of the parking lane on the north side of E John St. We’ll place “no parking” signs in advance of work. The sidewalk will also be closed, but access to adjacent homes will be maintained. A detour for people walking, biking, and rolling will be provided. 

On Saturday, September 17, we’ll be at the E John St intersection to do preparatory work for the new signal poles. During this work, there will be short-term crossing and sidewalk closures while the poles are installed. Detours for people walking, biking, and rolling will be provided. We’ll also be at E Lynn St to install the controller cabinet for the new signal for people walking, biking, or rolling. The sidewalk will remain open and access to businesses maintained. Please use caution when traveling through the area. We expect to complete both signals by the end of the month.
