Road Repairs to Impact Traffic on Chestnut Avenue and Union Street

Beginning on Tuesday, July 16th, sections of Chestnut Avenue and Union Street will be closed to through traffic during daytime hours through Thursday, July 18th.

The eastbound lanes of Chestnut between 8th Street and 9th Street will be closed between

6:00 am and 4:00 pm while repairs are made to the road surface.  Westbound traffic on Chestnut will not be impacted by the project.  Both lanes of Union between Chestnut and Walnut Avenue will be closed to all through traffic between 6:00 am and 4:00 pm while the road repair project is underway.

Both the section of Chestnut and the section of Union affected by the projects will be open to traffic during evening hours.

While the road repair work is underway, traffic delays in the project areas will occur.  Drivers should use alternate routes if possible until the projects are completed.

Access to homes and businesses in the project areas will be maintained as best as possible and emergency vehicles will be allowed through the project areas if necessary.

As always, the schedule for these types of project is subject to change daily dependent on weather, equipment failure, and emergencies.

For additional information regarding this project, contact Streets & Traffic Operations Manager Joe Rosenlund at 576-6430.
