COLLINSVILLE VILLAGE STREETSCAPE II

Lots happening on Streetscape this week! The corner of River & Main continues to be the focal point of the project. The base for the bluestone pavers is installed, the sidewalks adjacent to the platform are going in as we speak. Granite curb is installed and bluestone, landscaping and decorative lighting will be along shortly. Some more curbing was installed at the bottom of River Street as well. FYI, The construction currently taking place at the corner of Front and Main is a private project related to a new water main connection for #10 Front St, and not Streetscape related.

So much sidewalk out there, I hope that artists of all ages in Collinsville see the clean white concrete as a canvas for their colored-chalk creativity!  Imagine a sidewalk summer art festival, with live music, art displays, and street food. There is so much we can do with the improvements that have been made, I’m sure that folks will come up with some great ideas.

I have a special request: Please keep in mind that construction workers are in the roadway during this project. Safety is always paramount, please spread the word for drivers to slow down when passing through the work area. Parking spaces in the immediate work zone may not be available depending on the type of construction taking place. There may be occasional delays while equipment & traffic moves through the area.  As with any major construction project, schedules are subject to change due to material availability, weather, etc. 

Businesses in the area will remain open and accessible during construction. Main Street will remain open during construction.
