Emporia’s annual Street Rehab project begins next week.
The city of Emporia says the first part of the project handles curb and gutter replacements, as well as sidewalks and ADA-accessible ramps. Milling and overlay work comes later this summer into early fall.
This year’s project list, involving the base bid and alternates, includes 11 street segments:
*West 7th Avenue, (West Street to Neosho Street)
*East 9th Avenue, (Mechanic Street to Union Street)
*West 9th Avenue, (Approximately 250 ft west of US-50 to US-50 Highway)
*West 24th Avenue, (Prairie Street to Lincoln Street)
*West Copley Avenue, (End of street east to Lawrence Street)
*Eaglecrest Drive, (18th Avenue to 18th Avenue)
*Garfield Street, (6th Avenue to 12th Avenue)
*Neosho Street, (South Avenue to 3rd Avenue)
*State Street, (South Avenue to 3rd Avenue)
*West Street, (South Avenue to 2nd Avenue)
*Whildin Street, (6th Avenue to 12th Avenue)
The Lee Beran Recreation Center’s parking lot will also be repaved as part of this overall project.
