As the Third Street construction project has been finished, you can travel through Algoma’s downtown streets without any detours. City Administrator Matt Murphy says the major street repair went very smoothly and was completed about one week earlier than expected. He shares the specific improvements that were done around the street beside the repaving of the roadway.

Murphy says the City of Algoma will now focus on 2023 spring plans for a Redevelopment Authority (RDA) block on Fifth Avenue near Denny’s Super Valu where houses will be removed for new apartment complexes being built by a developer. Division Street, beginning at Jefferson Street and going five blocks north, will be the next major street construction project starting next spring.
