Construction
10th Street & Monroe Project
The 10th & Monroe intersection improvement project is part of the Northeast Trail - Segment 1, which extends 0.9 miles from the end of the current Eastside Trail at Monroe Drive to Westminster Drive. The project aims to enhance pedestrian and bicycle safety at this intersection. Improvements will include a raised intersection design, better crosswalk markings and pedestrian signals, new traffic signals, and improved bike access.
Single lane closures for sidewalk work are expected to occur through mid-September.

Project Status
During the period of June 9th–14th, paving operations began, utility work was performed, concrete ramps were installed, and asphalt work was completed.
Single lane closures for sidewalk work will occur through mid-September.
What to Expect:
Single-lane closures will occur Monday through Friday, between 9:00 AM and 3:30 PM.
All traffic interruptions will utilize a combination of flaggers, cones/barrels, and, if needed, off-duty police officers to direct traffic and allow crews to work safely in the street.
Trail users and vehicle drivers should use caution at the intersection.
