Press release from the City of Ames: May 31, 2022 Douglas Avenue from Eighth to 10th streets will be closed to traffic beginning Monday, June 6, weather permitting. This closure is necessary to complete improvements to underground utilities and install a new road. The City of Ames has contracted with Manatts Inc. to complete these improvements. The project will begin with pavement removal. Subcontractor Jet Drain will then start replacement of selected storm sewer intakes, sanitary sewer manholes, and sanitary sewer spot repairs. Completion of underground utilities improvements is expected to take one to two weeks and will be followed by installation of a new asphalt road and concrete driveways. The total project is anticipated to be complete by July 29. All are encouraged to take note of this construction activity in the area and allow extra travel time as delays may occur.
