Extreme Excavation will continue working on Hankins Road between Fourth Avenue East and Ninth Avenue East through Sept. 26. As part of the project they will be installing a sewer mainline to connect the new Eastern Sun Subdivision to City services, and widening the roadway as part of the Hankins Road Widening Project that started earlier this summer.
Hankins Road between Fourth Avenue and Ninth Avenue will be closed to through traffic during the project. Traffic will be detoured around the project by using Fourth Avenue and Ninth Avenue. After Sept. 26, the traffic control plan will revert back to a shared northbound and southbound lane for through-traffic until paving is completed.
Drivers should avoid Hankins Avenue between Fourth and Ninth Avenues — if possible. When driving through any construction area, drivers should reduce their speed, follow all posted traffic controls, and yield to workers and equipment. Speeding fines increase in construction zones.
