STREET MAINTENANCE UPDATE: SW 45TH AVE

Crews are scheduled to begin a mill and overlay project on SW 45th Ave. between Virginia St. and I-27.

Traffic impacts: Lane closures will be in place, but traffic will remain two-way through the work zone. Drivers should expect delays and use caution when traveling through the area.

As part of the project, crews will remove the existing asphalt surface, apply a protective tack coat and install a new layer of asphalt to create a safer, smoother and longer-lasting roadway.

Please slow down, watch for crews and consider alternate routes while work is underway.

September is National Preparedness Month.

Now is a great time to make sure you and your family are prepared for an emergency. If you already have a plan, take a few minutes to review it and make sure everything is up to date.

Don’t have a plan yet? Start with these four steps:
1. Make a Plan
Talk with your household about emergency alerts, shelter, evacuation routes, communication, and your emergency kit.
2. Know Your Needs
Consider medical needs, pets, children, disabilities, dietary needs, and other responsibilities that may affect your emergency plan.
3. Write It Down
Create a family emergency plan with important contact information, meeting places, and medical information.
4. Practice Your Plan
Review and practice your plan with your household so everyone knows what to do when an emergency happens.

Learn more and create your family emergency plan at Ready.gov.
