The Town of Stevensville has announced its construction schedule for the next year with welcome additions to infrastructure initiatives that will continue to help the community build.

We've outlined the proposed projects and expected timelines here.

 

 

 

 

East 3rd Street Improvements (Spring 2021)

East 3rd Street is currently comprised of a single lane in each direction with no shoulders, and no curb, gutter or sidewalk. Based on discussions with the Public Works Supervisor, past projects adjacent to 3rd Street have shown poor base layers and clay subgrade beneath the pavement. Therefore, the proposed project will include pavement resurfacing consisting of a leveling course followed by 0.2-FT of plan mix overlay.

East 5th Street and Park Avenue Improvements (Spring 2021)

5th Street is currently comprised of a single lane in each direction with gravel shoulders and angled parking on both sides of the street. Improvements to the north side of 5th Street include paving of the shoulder, new curb and gutter and boulevard. The existing shoulder on the south side of 5th Street will receive new base material. New signing and pavement markings for parallel parking will be included as necessary. Existing sidewalk and a new pedestrian crossing
on the north side of the 5th Street and Park Avenue intersection will be included in the project. The new pedestrian crossing will connect to the proposed school sidewalk.

West 3rd Street Downtown Streetscape (Proposed Fall 2021/Spring 2022)

West 3rd Street is comprised of a single lane in each direction with paved shoulders and angled parking on both sides of the street. The project will include updating the streetscape on the north side of the street by replacing the existing sidewalk and light pole with new sidewalk, boulevard, and curb and gutter. In addition, the project will include the evaluation of adding a new bulb out at the northeast quadrant of the intersection with Buck Street.


 

East 6th Street - Main to College Pedestrian Safety Project (Proposed 2021)

Part of the future construction schedule includes improvements along the route of East 6th Street between Main Street and College, used heavily by both vehicles and pedestrians. The design of these improvements will focus on sidewalks, providing a safe route for walkers who are going to and from school.

Park Avenue Southern Community Connection (Begins Summer 2021)

This plan will focus on connecting the south end of Park Avenue with the rest of the community by providing the needed sewer service to the site of the Stevensville Community Foundation's future community center and increasing the walkability of the area. The sewer main on Park Avenue will be extended south from the old Phillips Street to Middle Burnt Fork Road.
