Judge Says 9th Street Resurfacing To Start Next Summer

The timetable to resurface 9th Street has been moved up to next summer. At this week’s city council meeting, Mayor Joe Judge said a recent meeting with state department of transportation revealed their plans to start work with the start of the new fiscal year on July 1st. That’s the good news. The bad news is the state is shifting a big chunk of the multi-million dollar project to the city. That includes ADA compliant sidewalk work and traffic lights facing side streets totaling $4.3 million. But, Judge said he has been able to drastically reduce that price tag….

 

Judge said he along with many other local residents were somewhat confused by the recent striping of 9th Street by DOT workers.
