About the Project:

The Myrtle-Sterling Area Street Improvements, City Project 22-16, is a street and utility project under construction during the summer of 2023. The scope of the project includes the replacement of the failing pavement, soil subgrade corrections where needed, spot replacement of deteriorated concrete curb and gutter, new concrete curb and gutter on streets that do not currently have it, upgrades to the existing storm and sanitary sewer systems, replacement of the existing cast iron water main on Myrtle Street and Lakewood Drive north of Ripley Avenue, and the restoration of boulevards and driveways disturbed by the project. A sidewalk is also being installed along the east-side of Lakewood Drive between Holloway Avenue and Ripley Avenue.

A construction contract was awarded to Bituminous Roadways, Inc. by the Maplewood City Council on May 8, 2023. Staff has met with the contractor, who plans to begin construction around the 3rd week of June. A mailing will be sent out to area property owners to inform them of what to expect during construction in the upcoming weeks.
