Fort Wayne, Ind. – It's construction season again and nearly 30 miles in street paving, reconstruction and repairs will take place through the end of October. The Public Works department will be working on streets throughout the community.
“Once again, we are improving several sections of some of our major streets, such as Stellhorn, Taylor, Tillman, Wayne Trace and Covington. But the majority of our projects will be in the heart of neighborhoods, streets like Devonshire, Margaret and Cherokee,” said Bob Kennedy, Director of Public Works.
In nearly all cases, the construction and paving projects involve local companies. Under the formula used by the U.S. Government, this year’s projects will support more than 160 construction-related jobs.
