Buffalo Main Street Project Update for August 30

The Wyoming Department of Transportation gave an update on the latest information for the Buffalo Main Street Project for the week of September 2.

Laura Dalles, Senior Public Relations Specialist for the Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT) District 4 said on Phase 3, North Main Street, milling from Airport Road to the I-90 interchange will begin the week of September 2.

All traffic will use the southbound lane and motorists should expect head-to-head traffic.

Paving on the northbound lane is expected to begin the week of September 9.

Milling and paving of the I-90/Main Street off ramp will also begin the week of September 9, which will require the closure of the ramp. Traffic will be detoured to the I-25 exit.

Adequate notice will be given when the closure will happen.

Key Approaches to businesses and side streets will be accessible.

In Phase 4, Downtown Main Street, contractors will be moving to the southwest corner of Angus Street the week of September 2. Watch for sidewalk closures.

Dalles said the project is ahead of schedule and WYDOT would like to finish work on several sidewalks in the downtown section this fall, which will shorten the schedule for next year.

Affected businesses will be contacted by WYDOT and the contractor to discuss the schedule and impact the sidewalk projects will have on the businesses.
