Concrete replacement projects expected to close streets through end of October ...

Concrete Foundations, Inc. of New Hampton is currently working on multiple locations of street repair within Waukon as part of the 2016 PCC Street Program that was approved by the Waukon City Council earlier this year. PCC refers to the Portland Cement Concrete process that involves replacement of the top layer of cement that traffic makes contact with. Several intersections and thoroughfares are currently closed with roadblocks and orange safety fencing as work continues, including the 400 block of Eighth Avenue NW (pictured above) near the former sale barn location and the intersection of Third Avenue NE and First Street NE (pictured below). Concrete Foundations was the qualified low bidder for this project at $318,000. These street repairs have a projected completion date of October 31 with weather being a consideration that may extend the completion timeline. Standard photos by Joe Moses.
