The Municipal Services Committee met 06/26/2023. One of the items they received was an update on the College Avenue Lane Reconfiguration project. The update was so brief there really is no need to provide a transcript of the discussion.
Director of Public Works Danielle Block told the committee that the project would commence on 07/10/2023. College Avenue would remain open during the restriping, but there would be lane closures. Side street would remain open. Depending on the weather, they were expecting to have the project completed by mid-July.
The city had partnered with Appleton Downtown Inc and was working on a branding and marketing campaign that was supposed to be finalized by the end of the week (which would be today, 06/30/2023). This campaign would include “strategies” [I took that to mean strategies to avoid the traffic] as well as a new landing page to learn more about the project. Additionally, they were going to mail out a postcard to approximately 320 mailing addresses along the College Avenue corridor letting them know about the project, explain why the project was being undertaken, and provide a web address for the project page.
