You won't see orange barrels and barricades on the streets of Algoma after this weekend.  The major street project in the City of Algoma this summer is rapidly coming to a close.  City Administrator Matt Murphy says construction crews are grading Freemont Street and Division Street on Wednesday afternoon and will then take care of the small stretch on Jefferson Street (Highway 54).  Paving crews will place new asphalt down on Friday, finishing with Frank Avenue on Saturday.

Murphy adds that all streets should be reopened to thru-traffic and normal flow by next Monday. Part of Jefferson Street will be closed from Thursday until Friday afternoon. He advises drivers to follow the temporary detours and be respectful when approaching the work zone areas where road crews are paving and base-coating the streets with asphalt.
