Second public meeting set for West and Woodland Street improvements

Isd Staff

A second informational meeting for property owners along West and Woodland streets, just west of the ISU campus, is scheduled from 5 to 6:30 p.m. Feb. 19.

The open house-style meeting will be held in the first floor lounge of Collegiate Presbyterian Church, 159 Sheldon Ave. 

West Street, from Sheldon to Hillcrest avenues, will be reconstructed, as will Woodland Street from West to Forest Glen streets. The reconstruction is scheduled to begin in spring 2015 and continue through the summer and fall. During the reconstruction, existing pavement from curb to curb will be removed and replaced with new pavement. 

The city of Ames has completed the final design for the project working with Civil Design Advantage. The informational meeting will be an open house format, with no scheduled presentation. Discussion will include final project design, construction schedule and construction phasing. The meeting also provides an opportunity to answer any questions.

Those unable to attend can share thoughts or seek answers to questions by contacting Gary Reed, Civil Design Advantage, 515.369.4400, [email protected], or Rudy Koester, City of Ames Public Works, 515.239.5160, [email protected].
