Curb Replacement on Section of NW Chipman Road

Preparations began this week for curb replacement on a section of NW Chipman Road from U.S. Route 50 to the railroad bridge just east of NW Donovan Road. Curb removal is expected to start on Mon., Nov. 7, with pours and restoration to follow as well as sidewalk ramp replacement in several locations. The work is expected to take approximately three weeks, weather permitting. While there will be lane closures during this work, both eastbound and westbound NW Chipman Road will be open to through traffic; however, some delays can be expected.

Detailed curb replacement maps for this area can be found on the City’s website (pages 10-13): https://cityofls.net/Portals/0/Files/Public-Works/CIP/FY23%20Curb%20Repair%20Maps.pdf?ver=vmCDuRX0gdJ4XPW9l-WTqA%3d%3d
