WINFIELD â The town is looking to tackle a long-awaited project this year.Â
During its Tuesday evening meeting, the Winfield Town Council announced the town secured funding to improve the intersection of 109th Avenue and Grand Boulevard.Â
Town Council President Gerald Stiener said the town received a Community Crossing grant for $1 million, as well as funds from the Little Calumet River Basin Development Commission, to complete the project.
The town is working on securing funds to begin the roughly $2 million project this year, hopefully sooner rather than later, Stiener said. We re working out some of the logistical details, but we re anxious to get this project done, Stiener said. It is a very dangerous intersection. Anybody who s driven down this road knows. My wife almost got hit there tonight, as a matter of fact.
