These improvements are part of a multi-year project that began in 2024 and is expected to be complete in 2027. The project has consisted of replacing the street lighting system (including light poles and bases, wiring, electrical cabinet, and conduit), removing worn and uneven brick pavers, and replacing ADA-deficient pedestrian ramps.
