OLEAN — Planning on how to breathe new life into South Union Street is progressing, city officials reported Tuesday. During a strategic planning meeting of the Olean Common Council, city Department of Public Works Director Bob Ring detailed the current status of the corridor project, expected to break ground in 2022. The project, Ring said, is expected to cost around $1.95 million, with $1.4 million from the Downtown Revitalization Initiative, $200,000 from the city’s sewer fund to make upgrades to that system, and the remainder from borrowing. The highlight of the current planning, Ring said, is a shared-use bicycle and walking path along the east side of the street.
