Tapani Inc. began work this week on Battle Ground’s $5.6 million South Parkway Improvement Project.
The project includes a complete reconstruction of the South Parkway Avenue between Eaton and Rasmussen blvd. to remove and replace its failing base. The new road will feature sidewalks, planter strips, bike lanes, lighting, a travel lane in each direction and a center left-turn lane. Additionally, between Rasmussen blvd. and Main St., crews will grind down the first few inches of roadway and a new layer of asphalt will be laid.
The City will commemorate the beginning of construction with a ceremonial groundbreaking on Thursday, March 16 at 10 a.m. at Starting Grounds Church (203 South Parkway Avenue).
The public is invited to attend.
