Work on a significant infrastructure project is taking place on Central Avenue.

The city’s public works department has started on the underground utility and roadwork between 22nd St. and 27th St.

A notice from the city said, “This significant infrastructure project will enhance the reliability of our water system, improve stormwater mangement, and provide a smoother driving experience for residents.”

Roadway milling is scheduled to begin first with the underground construction commencing Monday.

There will be periods during construction when local traffic will not be able to access driveways. (Logan Lehmann/paNOW)
