OSWEGO - Mayor Billy Barlow announced the start of the 2021 city of Oswego paving project, resulting in widespread construction and multiple detours throughout the city. The milling of city streets began May 3 and construction will last approximately three weeks. The $750,000 paving plan will pave several streets on both the east and west side of the city, along with the Water Street parking lot behind Canal Commons and a large section of East First Street included in the upcoming East First Street re-design project.
âWeâve worked hard to approve a paving plan and get the project underway as early in the season as possible. Our 2021 paving plan builds on our $4 million in paving in the last five years, addressing some of the bumpiest streets in the city,â said Mayor Barlow. I thank motorists and residents for their patience and cooperation in advance and look forward to the project being completed in short order,â Barlow said.
