ROAD PROJECTS:

Construction of a realigned portion of Gettysburg Road between the Gettysburg Road/Audobon Road intersection and the Wesley Drive/Century Drive intersection is ongoing.  The western approach of the Gettysburg Road/Wesley Drive intersection will be removed, and a new stormwater management basin and drainage channel will be constructed.  Construction for this project began in 2020 and is scheduled to finish in 2021.
