OWTW: Main Street and Jefferson Avenue Intersection Sidewalk Work Starts

Sidewalk work has started at the southeast corner of Main Street and NE Jefferson Avenue, near the Peoria County Courthouse. Sidewalks near this intersection are closed. Pedestrians should use caution and cross the street at the next available intersection.

Sidewalk work continues at Fulton Plaza at SW Jefferson Avenue. The sidewalks near 331 Fulton Street and 120 SW Jefferson Avenue are closed. The northeast corner of SW Adams Street and N William Kumpf Boulevard is nearing completion and will reopen to pedestrian traffic soon.

The following intersections have been completed and have reopened to pedestrian traffic:

• The southwest corner of SW Jefferson Avenue and Liberty Street.

• The southwest corner of SW Harrison Street and Jefferson Avenue.

• The northwest corner of SW Adams Street and N William Kumpf Boulevard.

Sidewalk removal will soon begin at the southeast corner of Hamilton Boulevard and NE Jefferson Avenue, near 200 NE Jefferson Avenue.

As a reminder, when sidewalks are closed, pedestrians should use caution in the area and cross the street at the next available intersection.

On-street parking restrictions are marked. Drivers should look for unbagged, available parking meters for on-street parking. If parking meters are bagged with "No Parking" signs, drivers should not park in those spots.

Additional parking, lane, and sidewalk restrictions will be forthcoming as the Adams Street and Jefferson Avenue One-Way to Two-Way (OWTW) Conversion Project progresses.

Drivers should be mindful of workers in the area and watch for no-parking areas. Extra caution should be exercised in the area.
