Where: Gere Library
56th and Normal
The City of Lincoln is hosting an informational open house regarding the Pioneers Boulevard street rehabilitation project from 32nd to 54th Street. This project includes street rehabilitation (concrete base repair, asphalt mill and overlay, and curb replacement), complete intersection replacement at 33rd, 40th and 48th Streets, new pavement markings, some traffic signal/electrical work, and sidewalk and ramp reconstruction.
Public Works is committed to working in partnership with the neighborhoods and the community on plans for our city streets. Pioneers Boulevard is currently 27-feet wide. The street rehabilitation project will include the addition of a common center turn lane by widening of the street. Two options will be presented at the meeting for accomplishing this. Each option comes with advantages and disadvantages that should be carefully considered as we make this decision.
This meeting will be in open house format with a presentation at 4:45 p.m. and repeated at 5:45 p.m. The public is invited to stop in to hear either presentation and discuss current design options with representatives from the City's Public Works Department who will be there to answer your questions and provide detail about the pros and cons of each option. The hope is to leave the meeting with a group consensus on the best strategy for the neighborhood and the community.
