New textured crosswalk at Magnolia and Prospect avenues |
There’s a bustle of activity this week on Prospect Avenue,
where construction continues on a mile-long street beautification project.
Final paving originally scheduled for early May has been postponed. New dates will be posted after the contractor has completed all pre-paving work items.
Boxes containing more than 100 trees and shrubs have been
unloaded and they will be planted as soon as new electrical service boxes have
been installed. More street lights are going up.This week, the newly installed raised median along the Gillespie Field frontage will be completed. Workers will also finish paving Ian Way and Hacienda Road on the north side of Prospect.
Electrical conversion boxes and other equipment related to
the undergrounding of overhead wires is continuing. Electrical cables have been
installed between Magnolia and Railroad avenues.
Nearly all of the new concrete curbs, gutters, sidewalks and
driveways have been installed.
Questions or concerns about the project can be directed to
