SOUTH BENDÂ â Mayor James Mueller Tuesday announced a three-year $25 million âRebuilding Our Streetsâ plan that will focus more attention on repaving lesser-traveled neighborhood streets.
âDuring my conversations with residents throughout South Bend, I have heard loud and clear that our streets are in desperate need of improvement,â Mueller said at a press conference at the corner of Ford and Dundee streets, a block whose street surface his administration has deemed in some of the worst condition.
Mueller said the city historically has prioritized streets with the highest traffic volume for annual repaving, but residents in a 2018 quality of life survey identified neighborhood streets as one of the most important things they want to see city money spent on.
