The City’s Public Works Department hopes to have a contractor in place for the Galloway Street Widening Project from Luster Avenue to Lone Pine Avenue this summer.
The project will involve the widening of Galloway Street to three lanes between Luster Avenue and Lone Pine Avenue, including the construction of a new left turn lane, traffic calming roundabout intersections at Luster and at Lone Pine, sidewalks on the south side of Galloway and a multi-use path on the north side. The project will also upgrade stormwater infrastructure and improve drainage along Luster Avenue and Galloway Street.
Once a bid is approved and a contractor selected, the City will work with them to determine a construction schedule and share details with the community in a public meeting prior to construction. The target for the project to begin is mid-late summer with an expected duration of 16-24 months.
What to expect
Access to all properties and residences in the project area will be maintained throughout construction. However, motorists may have to access a property from a certain direction for a certain period of time.
- Expect through traffic on Galloway to be impacted for a significant portion of the project duration.
- Expect north-south through traffic on Lone Pine and on Luster to be impacted for a months-long period of time during construction.
- Local traffic will maintain access throughout.
