The plan showcases what streets need new paving and upkeep. "This is picking off some of the worst condition streets off of our inventory and street condition assessment," Schrader said. The streets included within the project are portions of West 1st, N. Washington, N. Mulberry, N. Walnut, S. Olive, NE 12th, NW 5th, NW 6th, NW 10th and SE 3rd. When work is being done on West 1st and N. Washington, drivers will need to choose an alternative route due to full road closure during the paving process. The road rehabilitation project was estimated at $585,278, but when bids came in Shrader said he was pleased to see the two companies that bid both came in under the estimate. Commissioners voted unanimously to award the project to low bidder APAC with a bid of $431,020.52. Funds will come out of the 2021 Special Street and Sales Tax Street budget. According to Abilene Public Works, the project does not have a definitive start time, but may be in late July or early August. Before construction dates, public works plans to post announcements through the local newspaper, radio station and the city's social media pages. "If the planned work requires, and it usually does, that all of the streets be cleared of parked cars and any closures beyond very brief ones, my staff will distribute door hangers at the affected residences and businesses," Schrader said. _____________________________________________________________ You are invited to bid on a general contract for Street Rehabilitation totaling approximately 22,950 sq. yds. of 2 mill and inlay/overlay projects, approximately 12,000 sq. yds. of UBAS or 1 screened asphalt overlay with related curb and gutter, ADA ramps, driveway, alley entrances and valley gutters for the City of Abilene, Kansas.
