Coulee Dam's Sixth Street will be rebuilt this spring, starting this week.
The Sixth Street Improvement Project started Monday and will include "a full depth reclamation of the street, reconstructing curb and gutter, installing new storm structures, and constructing new ADA ramps at select intersections," a city notice posted online Friday says.
Extending only the few blocks from Aspen Street to Central Drive, the street directly to the north of Harvest Foods and the Colville Tribal Casino will be closed to through traffic and will include sidewalk closures.
The contractor on the work is Rudnick & Sons, who, the city notice states, will do their best to "minimize impacts on the public."
Funded by the state Transportation Improvement Board, the project will cost $821,391, including construction and engineering.
The completion date in contract documentation was set for Dec. 31 this year.
UPDATE: However, at an April 26 town council meeting, completion was said to be expected by the end of May, 2023.
