West Indiana Ave.
between South Calumet Road and South Fifth Street was closed this morning
for re-paving.
Rieth-Riley
Construction Company began milling at 7 a.m. Re-surfacing is scheduled to
commence on Thursday. Striping--which will include the striping of angled
parking spaces along the north side of West Indiana Ave. between South
Calumet Road and Second Street; and between Third Street and Fourth
Street--is set for Friday.
Angling the parking
along West Indiana Ave. should add 12 spaces.
A curb
extension--in the shape of a fish hook--was poured earlier this month. That
extension will prevent motorists turning right from southbound South Calumet
Road from broadsiding any vehicles angled-parked along West Indiana Ave.
Today patrons of
the Westchester Public Library could park along Second Street as well as in
WPL’s two lots, accessed from Third Street.
Street Commissioner
John Schnadenberg told the Chesterton Tribune this morning that a
crew will also mill and re-surface Sidewalk Road between Kelle Drive and
Dickinson Road on Thursday and Friday of this week.
