work is being done as part of a Federal Aid Enhancement Program project for
which the City of <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Moscow</st1:City></st1:place>
will receive federal funds. The project includes pavement widening to
accommodate bike lanes, installation of curbs and gutters, and concrete
sidewalks that are intended to improve pedestrian access. Once the
widening is complete, the street will receive an asphalt overlay paid for with
City funds. The completed street section will feature sidewalks and bicycle
lanes on both sides of the street. A separate City funded project
extended the existing culverts across Paradise Creek, including the
installation of a new concrete headwall and wing-walls. The project also
includes lighting improvements, wetland impact mitigation and
landscaping. The overall project cost is estimated to be $700,000 -
$800,000.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
