Site work and paving for a road / highway in Des Moines, Iowa. Conceptual plans call for site work for a road / highway; and for paving for a road / highway.

Operation Downtown plans to touch up the paint on the wayfinding sign poles and bases as an interim measure to address the locations where the powder coating is chipped / removed from the poles. This interim fix is not a long term or permanent fix. For a permanent fix, the style of pole installed in 2008 would need to be completely removed for refinishing and powder coating; therefore, it would be more economical to replace the poles and update the wayfinding signage as needed. Development Services and Operation Downtown first would update and map out the desired locations and wayfinding signage (which destinations are shown) and the following year the old signs would be removed and replaced with new signs. This project is included in the city’s fy 2025-2029 Capital Improvement Program.
