Last summer, the city began work on a new infrastructure and pedestrian connectivity project in the Old Silver Creek neighborhood, along 5th Street, 6th Street and a portion of Main Avenue. After a pause during winter weather, crews from Ryatt Construction will resume work on Monday, April 13.
Once complete, 5th Street, 6th Street and a portion of Main Avenue will have curb, gutter, sidewalk and a new watermain. Nuisance flooding will be fixed with the addition of drainage swales, stormwater catch basins and a storm pipe network. Additionally, a portion of Main Avenue near the intersection with the Snoqualmie Valley Trail will be lowered to increase sight distance and enhance pedestrian safety.
Beginning on Monday, crews will work to finish storm water and sewer installation, moving next to curb, gutter and sidewalk. The city anticipates this project to wrap up by mid-June.
For questions or concerns, please reach out to Mike Mayen, Project Engineer, at mmayen@northbendwa.gov.
