To improve the condition of the roadway by means of selected street improvement methods. To improve water system capacity and reliability by replacing the existing water main.

Description

This project consists of water main replacement and street improvements on North Michigan Avenue from Vermont street to Plymouth Street and water main replacement on West Vermont Street from Wisconsin Avenue to Michigan Avenue.

Justification

The Village's pavement management program has determined that the condition of the roadway has deteriorated to the point that street improvements are needed. The existing water main has a high incidence of water main breaks. The Village has submitted an application through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program.
