Description

Press release from the City of Ames: March 18, 2021 Work on the reconstruction of 13th Street will begin the week of March 22, weather permitting. The project will begin with Alliant Energy relocating gas services between the blocks of Wilson and Clark avenues. The southern eastbound lane of 13th Street will be closed during this relocation, which is expected to be complete within one to two weeks. Following the utility relocation, reconstruction of 13th Street between Wilson and Duff avenues will begin. The City of Ames has contracted with Con-Struct and their subcontractor Keller Excavating to complete the reconstruction project, which is anticipated to take four to five months. At all times, one lane of 13th Street in each direction will remain open to traffic. However, access to side streets will be restricted for safety reasons and to ease potential congestion of the construction zone. All are encouraged to take note of this construction activity in the area and allow extra travel time as delays will occur. As always, caution should be exercised when traveling through the construction area. For more information, contact Dean Sayre, Civil Engineer II, at [email protected] or 515.239.5277.
