IMPORTANT STREETSCAPE IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT UPDATE

The streetscape contractor is planning to mill the asphalt on the first block of Main Street between Memorial Drive and Market Street on Friday, September 21, 2012. There will be no parking available along either side of the street on this block. Cones and barricades will be placed that will limit the movement of traffic through this block of Main Street. When the milling is complete, the first phase of sidewalk construction will begin on the west side of the block and on-street parking will be available on the opposite side.  

Thank you for your patience during this process!
