Kenyon Road Improvement Project - Phase 2 Begins April 8!

The next phase of improvements on Kenyon Road is set to begin on Tuesday, April 8! Castor Construction will start work on the second phase of the intersection project, which includes the installation and reconstruction of medians to better channel traffic and create protected left-turn lanes, making the area safer and more efficient for everyone.

What to Expect:

The left lane in each direction will be closed around the intersection.

Avenue C will remain open and fully accessible during this phase.

Weather permitting, this phase should be completed in approximately 1 month.

Once this phase is complete, the Iowa Department of Transportation will begin work on the northeast-bound bridges along Kenyon Road for 2025. We'll share more details as we get closer to that start date!

Thank you for your patience as we continue making improvements to enhance safety and traffic flow in our community. Stay tuned for updates! Kenyon Road Improvement Project - Phase 2 Begins April 8!

Just because it fits doesn't mean it flushes!

Your toilet is a toilet - not a trashcan. Flushing the wrong stuff like wipes, diapers, or even "flushable" products can clog pipes, damage our sewer system, and cost everyone big .

Remember - It's a toilet, not a trashcan! Disposable doesn't mean flushable.

Let's keep things flowing the right way. Only flush the 3 P's: Pee, Poop, and (Toilet) Paper. Everything else? Trash it! Just because it fits doesn't mean it flushes!

Traffic Update: S 29th Street to Become Reversible!

To better accommodate the growing number of visitors to local food establishments in the area, S 29th Street will soon be transitioning to reversible lanes in the coming weeks!

What this means: During peak traffic hours -
Lunch Rush: 11:30 AM – 1:30 PM
Supper Rush: 5:30 PM – 7:30 PM
- traffic will only be allowed to enter S 29th St from the south.

Depending on your destination:
Use the eastbound lane if you re heading to spots on the east side.
Use the westbound lane if you re headed west.

This change is designed to improve traffic flow and enhance safety for everyone traveling through this busy area.

We're excited to get this project underway and appreciate your patience as the transition takes place. Stay tuned for signage and updates - and thank you for helping us keep things moving smoothly!
