Crews on the 42nd Street project completed the first major portion of paving this week, and will begin paving driveways and sidewalks on the north side. This work is expected to be complete by the end of May. The retaining wall immediately east of the Wenig Rd intersection will also be finished sometime this week or next.
Going Forward
Rathje Construction is tentatively planning to close 42nd St from east of the Wenig Rd intersection to Northwood Dr beginning on Friday, June 3. This would include the intersections of Meadow Ln, Marilyn Dr, and Northwood Dr. The Northwood Dr intersection is anticipated to be closed for approximately three weeks.
What to Expect
For through traffic from outside the neighborhood
There will be a detour in place to Glass Rd via Wenig Rd and I-380, but through traffic is encouraged to find an alternate route.
For residents on 42nd St east of Northwood Dr:
42nd Street will remain open to local traffic only from the east. Residents will have access to their driveways throughout this phase.
For residents on 42nd St west of Northwood Dr: 42nd Street will be closed to ALL traffic. Residents will be able to park on Northwood Dr, Marilyn Dr, and Meadow Ln. In addition, Kennedy High School has graciously agreed to allow residents west of Meadow Ln to park in the southeast corner of their parking lot while the Northwood Dr intersection is closed.
For residents north of 42nd Street:
Access to your neighborhood will be available via Wenig Rd from the south and via Towne House Dr from the west.
For residents south of 42nd Street
Access to your neighborhood will be available as usual via Northwood Dr from the south or via Wenig Rd.
Thank you again for your collaboration and patience as we work to reconstruct 42nd Street. We are working as quickly as possible on improvements.
