Construction for this project began in February 2021 and was completed in July 2022. This project was on track to be completed ahead of the contract time, but due to unforeseen issues in coordination with Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) the final completion date was delayed by several months.
This project was part of the City’s program to rebuild streets throughout the city that have deteriorated beyond general maintenance and included the following improvements.
- Rebuilding the 4-lane concrete roadway with medians and landscaping
- Installation of sidewalks
- Streetlight improvements
- Storm drainage infrastructure improvements
- Renewal of water and sanitary sewer infrastructure
Funding for this project was approved by Arlington voters as part of the $8.2 million Street Improvements package included in the 2014 Bond Election. This project aligns with the City Council’s priorities to Enhance Regional Mobility and Champion Great Neighborhoods.
