PROJECT STATUSThe First Track Celebration was commemorated with a community event this summer to embed the first track in the guideway. This milestone is significant as it marks the halfway point of construction. It also means the construction area on 19th Ave. will begin appearing more as a light rail system, as stations take shape and the guideway is completed.
CONSTRUCTIONTrack installation has occurred at the site of the future park-and-ride at Dunlap Ave. and is continuing to head south down 19th Ave. With this new phase, driving patterns along 19th Ave. will be modified, including right-turn only movements onto 19th Ave. as the guideway is installed. Residents will continue to see new sidewalks, curbs and gutters throughout the project. Drivers will be traveling on new sections of paved roadway.
Other upcoming activities include:
• Dunlap station construction• Roadway widening and paving• Major utility construction completion
