(March 20, 2026) Road construction season is starting soon! Orange cones, lane closures, and detours can be frustrating, but improving the city’s major roads and neighborhood streets is one of the City’s top priorities.
This year, the City plans a full list of transportation projects with more than $34.8 million invested in improvements.
