City of Williston Construction Updates

The following are new progress updates regarding ongoing construction projects throughout the City of Williston.

Preparation for road striping of the 16th Ave. W and 26th St. intersection and as well as the fully paved 16th Ave. extension began on Tuesday, Sept. 29.

Road striping starts on Wednesday, Sept. 30 with landscaping operations ongoing. Permanent signage will follow shortly after.

The intersection will transition from a 3-way to a 4-way stop when the 16th Ave. extension opens in mid-October. At that time, a footpath that spans the length of the 16th Ave. extension will also be available for public use.

The 16th Ave. extension will connect with 42nd St.

The necessary infrastructure is in place for lighting which will go up under traffic at a later date.

Sewer is complete and BEK Consulting is installing water line and storm sewer along the length of the 42nd St. extension, heading west toward 32nd Ave. W.

MMI is following behind with subgrade work to prepare the road for paving which is also scheduled for mid-October.

Once complete, 42nd St. will extend beyond 16th Ave. W and connect with 32nd Ave. W.

The water line and storm sewer are installed with curb and gutter complete in all areas minus the block of 4th Ave. W= between 6th and 7th St. W, and 7th St. W from 3rd Ave. W up to the alley between 4th and 5th Ave. W.

Paving is scheduled to begin next week with all roads in the area reopening in mid-October.

Road construction continues with the pouring of curb and gutter, scheduled to finish early next week. Sidewalk work is also scheduled to begin next week.
