Lincoln Way Asphalt Work Continues

FROM CITY OF AMES

AMES, Iowa – A street improvement project on Lincoln Way between Hayward Avenue and Franklin Avenue in west Ames continues with new asphalt surfacing being placed on Monday, July 15.  

Street intersections on the south side of Lincoln Way will be closed in phases so that new asphalt surfacing can be placed and allowed time to cool. Streets affected include South Wilmoth Avenue, State Avenue, Hyland Avenue, and Sheldon Avenue. The asphalt cooling will take several hours. As the work is completed, the intersection will reopen.

Drivers should expect to encounter construction vehicles and activities in the area.  For safety reasons, keep pets and children away from the construction zone. If the weather or unforeseen conditions prevent this work from being performed on Monday, it will take place on the next day of favorable conditions.
