Westfield Road: Phase I Information Session

A couple of information sessions on the Westfield Road construction will be held on June 2 at Shades of Green, 2483 Westfield Rd, at 2-4pm and 6-8pm.

Residents of the area have been lobbying for years to have upgrades made to the road there. It’s a great spot with beautiful views of the river, but very dangerous for pedestrians.

The reconstruction work will begin this summer but will take years to complete. I imagine it will make the area a more desirable location to live, and wonder how it will impact home prices.

The City’s website says the first phase will include replacing the existing roadway culverts, installing sections of storm sewer and road reconstruction consisting of road widening, new curb, sidewalk, bike lanes and asphalt road surface within the construction limits.
