South Street construction is underway...

Crews have been working on prepping the ADA ramps to be placed along South Street with minimal delays to South Street traffic. But we want you to be prepared for when there ARE major delays on South. Because they are coming.

Drivers are advised to slow down in this area and give crews enough space to work.
