Update – Nakoma Road Sidewalk Project

September 29, 2025 Update

Thank you to the public for your patience as our contractor continues the work of installing the box culvert at the intersection of Nakoma Road and Cherokee Drive. The closure of that intersection will continue until the week of October 27th as the culvert installation concludes, utility relocations complete, and the area is fully restored and re-paved.

September 5, 2025 Update

Nakoma Road is now closed in both directions at Cherokee Drive as the contractor moves to install the box culvert across the intersection of Nakoma Road and Cherokee Drive. This week the contractor is relocating sanitary and water services to bring the main storm sewer in next week. The culvert project is estimated to be completed by mid-October. The sidewalk project is 90% complete with outstanding items including the pedestrian railing and the electrical equipment for the RRFB crossings.
