This project is scheduled to last five nights total.

The scheduled nights for the crosswalk work are Wednesday, Sept. 21; Thursday, Sept. 22; Monday, Sept. 26; Tuesday, Sept. 27; and Wednesday, Sept. 28.

The locations impacted include the following intersections:

  • South Wayne Avenue and 11th Street
  • Arch Avenue and Federal Street
  • Two mid-block crossings on West Main Street between Arch Avenue and Church Street

According to the news flash, the traffic division will communicate with the Emergency Operations Center as the closed locations change.

Every effort will also be made to minimize impact to downtown businesses.
