The speed along McConnell and near the high school is 20 MPH. Remember, twenty is plenty!

High Street Stormwater Improvements Project
The High Street Stormwater Improvement project began October 12! This project entails installing new storm drain along High Street between 5th Ave. and 4th Ave., and will continue down 4th Ave. from High Street to Main street. Also included will be a new concrete sidewalk being constructed on High Street, between 5th Ave. and 4th Ave. Once these items are complete, the roadway will be reconstructed on the eastbound lane of High Street and the southbound lane on 4th Ave.
Traffic Impacts
The eastbound lane of High Street between 5th and 4th and southbound lane of 4th Ave between High Street and Main street will be closed until the end of November. On street parking on the southside of High Street and westside of 4th in these areas will not be available during this project. Business accesses will be maintained throughout the project with day to day closures to complete the work as needed. Detours will be signed so that traffic can keep moving around these areas. Pedestrian traffic will be allowed to access the businesses.
Safety concerns
This project will have open trenches while they install the new storm drain, so please avoid getting close to these areas. As with any construction project, there are safety concerns with equipment and trucks working; please give them space to work and do not impede their work space for your safety.
Visit townoflyons.com/HighStreet for more information and weekly project updates.
