Construction Notice: 18th Street, Main St. Terrace

road work ahead

Killough Construction, the project contractor, has issued doorknocker notices to impacted residents along 18th Street and Main Street Terrace in west Osawatomie, alerting them to upcoming construction. Equipment, barricades, and other signage will be arriving onsite ahead of the planned March 13th, 2023, construction start date. This start date is weather dependent. 

More information will be made available soon, including instructions for driveway access and parking during construction, etc.

This is a continuation of the full-depth reconstruction Killough completed on the neighboring section of Brown Avenue last fall. The work on 18th Street will move onto Main Street Terrace and, once those blocks are near completion, Killough will begin the planned reconstruction of Walnut Avenue from 4th Street to 6th Street including the 4th Street intersection. These full-depth reconstructions include some water distribution improvements, freshly poured 5-foot sidewalks, and new storm water drainage systems. Resident driveways will also receive new concrete approaches as part of the construction.
