Burton Street Reconstruction from East Paris to Patterson Begins July 13


Full reconstruction of Burton Street from East Paris to Patterson avenues will begin Wednesday, July 13.

The project will include narrowing the existing roadway pavement for the construction of a new non-motorized trail on the north side of the street. In addition, the street will receive new concrete curb and gutter, new concrete driveway approaches and new asphalt pavement surface on the roadway.

For most of the project, through traffic on Burton Street will be maintained in both directions. There will be a time when eastbound traffic will be detoured from East Paris Avenue to Sparks Drive to Forest Hill Avenue and from East Paris Avenue to 28th Street to Patterson Avenue. Updates will be shared when timing of the detour is determined.

This project is scheduled to be completed in October.
