The second phase of the Belknap Street construction project is well under way.  Last week temporary signs and signals were installed for the middle section that is scheduled to be completed this year.  Now, heavy equipment has been removing pavement. Water main installation is also beginning soon.

If you can find a way to avoid Belknap Street, it would be recommended.  Lane closures have already caused a significant traffic back up at busy points during the day.

That being said, it's also important to support the businesses during the construction period.  It can make quite an impact on their fiscal year.  There are multiple ways to access most of these businesses through other adjacent streets.

The next update meeting is scheduled for April 16th, at the Superior BID office at 823 Belknap Street at 1pm.
