Groundbreaking for Woodburn\u2019s Phase II Streetscape took place February 17 at the Woodburn Community Center.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project is receiving U.S. HUD Community Development Block Grand funding from the Indiana Office of Community Rural Affairs as part of their partnership with the NewAllen Alliance East Allen Rural Revival Plan and the Indiana Regional Stellar Communities Designation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Woodburn\u2019s project will be the second phase of streetscape improvements within the last five years.\u00a0 The area will focus along Main Street from Becker Road to Carl Street and will include ADA compliant ramps and complete sidewalks with the addition of pavers to add to the sidewalk experience, new lighting to improve visibility and warmth, plant openings along the sidewalks for tree plantings to provide shade to soften the hardscape experience, drainage upgrades to prevent flooding and erosion of streets and walkways.\u00a0 The project was designed by JPR Corporation, administered by Strutz Public Management Group, and is being constructed by API Construction. The project budges if $724,739 with $500,000 coming from federal funding and $224,739 from the City of Woodburn. The project will commence construction when the weather breaks and expected to be completed by July 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
