[Downtown Manhattan, Inc. Gina Scroggs]

All-
A message from the City of Manhattan:
Starting Monday, May 17th, 4th Street at Bluemont Avenue will be
closed while a roundabout is constructed and other improvements are
made to the area. Traffic along Bluemont Avenue through this area
will be reduced to 2 lanes. Please use Leavenworth Street to access
downtown Manhattan.


This construction will continue until fall of 2010. These
improvements are expected to enhance traffic flow through the area,
allowing access to the downtown redevelopment.


Background
On November 21, 2006, the City Commission accepted the preliminary
design of 4th Street, including the design of the roundabout at 4th
Street and Bluemont Avenue. On January 5, 2010, the City Commission
authorized a contract with KDOT for the construction of the
intersection improvement at 4th Street and Bluemont Avenue
intersection. Pavers, Inc. out of Salina, Kansas was the successful
bidder on the project.
