🚧 South Street Project Update 🚧

Despite the rain over the last couple of weeks, progress continues on the South Street Reconstruction Project!

The stormwater work is now complete, marking another major underground infrastructure milestone for the project. Road base stabilization has also begun and will continue into next week.

Once the base work is completed, crews will move on to grading the road in preparation for curb work in the coming weeks. Step by step, South Street is continuing to take shape!

Thank you again to residents for your continued patience and cooperation as this important project moves forward.

🚧 South Street Project Update 🚧

You may have noticed it rained in Botkins this week. Just a little. Maybe once or twice. Or constantly.

Due to the rain, progress on the South Street Reconstruction Project was delayed this week. Crews were still able to complete some stormwater work, and the stormwater portion of the project is now nearing completion.

With better weather expected next week, crews will have the opportunity to begin road grading and subgrade stabilization. This work helps prepare and strengthen the base of the road before the new road surface is installed.

We appreciate everyone’s continued patience and cooperation as the project keeps moving forward!

🚧 South Street Project Update 🚧

Progress continues on the South Street Reconstruction Project!

The stormwater main replacement work is nearing completion, marking another important step forward in the project. This underground work is a key part of improving drainage and supporting the long-term reliability of the street infrastructure.

Next week, crews are expected to begin subgrade stabilization and road surface grading. In plain terms, this means preparing and strengthening the road base so it is ready for the new road surface later in the project.

We continue to thank residents for their patience and cooperation as work moves forward. Please continue to use alternate routes when available, and as always, contact the Village Office with any questions.

🚧 South Street Project Update 🚧

Progress continues on the South Street Reconstruction Project!

The new water main has passed all required testing, and all water service lines have now been connected. This marks a major milestone for the project and completes the water portion of the underground infrastructure work.

While crews were waiting on final water line testing, some excavation work for future sidewalks also began. Now that the water main work is complete, crews have started the next major phase of the project: replacing the stormwater main.
