The Cincinnati Department of Transportation & Engineering (DOTE) has begun a street rehabilitation and intersection improvement project on Paxton Avenue between Wasson Road and Marburg Avenue in Hyde Park.
As part of the project, crews will eliminate the slip lane and install new traffic signals at Wasson Road to help improve pedestrian and vehicular safety at this busy intersection.
In addition to curb repairs, curb ramps will be replaced or upgraded to meet accessibility standards required by the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Crews have begun making repairs to a damaged water main and are scheduled to begin full-depth pavement repairs next.
Through traffic will be allowed during the eight-month project, though motorists should expect brief, intermittent delays, depending on the work being performed. The project is scheduled for completion in November.
The contractor is Cincinnati-based Prus Construction. The $3.4 million project is funded with a combination of city capital and a SORTA transportation infrastructure grant.
