Hello friends and neighbors, First, please accept our apology for not having sent a notice prior to today regarding the infrastructure work underway by the Department of Public Works (DPW). Changing weather conditions and scheduling adjustments made communicating the construction phasing challenging. The projects coming to fruition this fall are the culmination of two years of advocacy work by the BRVA with city officials. We’d like to thank Councillor Gooden and Councillor Fanning for championing our projects and the Department of Public Works for cooperating with us on the design. Thank you, friends and neighbors, for your patience and understanding during construction. When completed, many critical drainage issues will be addressed and a number of our main arterial streets will be improved. If you have an issue or problem at your home or businesses as it relates to the projects outlined below, please contact DPW Project Manager, RJ Heimes at richard.heimes@indy.gov.
