The 53rd St Reconstruction and Widening Project will kick-off the 2020 Construction Season soon.

With Council approval to award a contract on Feb 26, pre-construction meetings will be held to develop traffic plans, and a schedule for complete reconstruction and widening of E 53rd St between Brady and Eastern will begin.

Once works gets underway, motorists should expect delays or consider an alternate route while we widen the street to install a dedicated turn-lane, install all new pavement and base, and add pedestrian and shared-use paths to the north and south of the road. Access to businesses within the corridor will be maintained during construction.

Stormwater improvements will also be installed as part of the project.

A smoother, less congested roadway lays ahead. Be on the look-out for more details as construction planning progresses.
