Asphalt used; updates for curbs, sidewalks
DEVAN FILCHAK | The Journal Gazette
A section of Vance Avenue will soon get what Fort Wayne City Council members said are much-needed repairs.
The council voted unanimously Tuesday to approve a construction contract with Brooks Construction Co. Inc. for $434,590. The street will be converted from concrete to asphalt from Hobson Road to Beacon Street. The project includes updating ramps for people with disabilities and replacing sidewalks and curb, gutter and drive approaches.
Multiple council members spoke up about the project. Tom Didier, R-3rd, said that despite it not being in his district, he s noticed how badly the section of Vance needs repaired.
