Construction Staging

The work for the project will be completed in two stages. Stage one work will take place on the southside of the street, stage two work will take place on the northside of the street. Each stage is estimated to take approximately (4) weeks.

During both stages, E. North Avenue will accommodate westbound traffic only between N. Humboldt Boulevard and N. Farwell Avenue. Two-way traffic will be accommodated between N. Farwell and N. Prospect avenues.

No parking will be permitted on E. North Avenue throughout the project limits.
