Sidewalk Construction Starting On Hastings, Garfield

The City of Traverse City, Machin Engineering, Elmer’s Crane and Dozer, and Bella Concrete Construction are starting sidewalk construction work on Hastings Street and Garfield Avenue.

Crews started working Friday on Hastings Street between Parsons Road and East Eighth Street and will continue through July 2. Northbound traffic on Hastings Street north of Parsons Road will be detoured using Hannah Avenue and Steele Street. Southbound traffic on Hastings Street between East Eighth Street and Parsons Road will be maintained. Westbound traffic on Oakland Street will be prohibited at the Hastings Street intersection.

Crews will also start working Monday on both the east and west sides of South Garfield Avenue between Boon Street and East Eighth Street. The project is expected to last until August 20. South Garfield Avenue will remain open to traffic, but there will be lane closures at the work zones. Delays can be expected in the area.
