Paving for Progress Construction Update

O Avenue NW

Construction Update | 8-9-2021

Work on the box culvert has resumed and has progressed west of 27th Street. This work also includes storm sewer installation. Two-way traffic is open on O Avenue where culvert installation is underway.

O Avenue from 24th Street to 26th Street is ready for the new concrete pavement, and new sidewalks and driveways are currently being placed. The contractors will also begin pavement work on O Avenue going west from 26th Street to just west of 27th Street. Pavement placement is expected to begin after Labor Day. Due to the utility and box culvert work still underway, we anticipate pavement work from west of 27th Street to Edgewood Road will occur in 2022.

As always, if you have questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact a member of our project team.
