While robins have been around for a while, the first true sign of spring is when you see road and parking lot improvements begin in the City of Sturgeon Bay. City Engineer Chad Shefchik shared the news on Friday about the start of the construction season, with work on the N. 2nd Street parking between Michigan Street and Louisiana Street already underway. After the construction company finishes up the parking lot, crews from Martell Construction will then start cutting, removing, and replacing concrete curbing and sidewalk in the following areas:
- N 18th Place (from Georgia Street to Jefferson Drive)
- Jefferson Drive (from N 18th Place to N 18th Ave)
- Iowa Street (from N 18th Place to N 18th Ave)
- Huron Street (from N 14th Place to N 15th Place)
- Huron Court (from Huron Street to N 15th Place)
- N 15th Place (from Huron Street to Georgia Street)
On Monday, Northeast Asphalt will begin its paving projects on Cove Road (from 715’ north of Zenith Street to the south termination) and Zenith Street (from Cove Road to the west termination), hoping to finish by the end of next week. Earlier this week, the city shut down traffic on N 7th Avenue between Delaware and Colorado streets for gas main construction work. Shefchik reminds residents to use alternative routes if possible so the work can finish quickly and everyone can navigate the area safely.
