WEST EUCLID PAVING

Progress continues on W Euclid, but, only the section from “U” east to the end of existing paving is paved. Sidewalks, driveway approaches and storm sewer intakes will be paved in the next two weeks along this stretch.

City staff met today with the engineer and school officials to discuss concerns about Wilder School opening on Wednesday the 20th. The plan is for the contractor to pave sidewalks on the south side of Euclid as soon as possible, and, to have school officials and police officers present to direct walking traffic on the 20th. The concern is our young children walking to school (along Euclid) without sidewalks. School officials also plan to give students notice on the 20th for parents to drive children to school if possible until sidewalks are paved.

The contractor plans to pave the remainder of W Euclid in about two weeks.
