A project to calm traffic and preserve the pavement on Westnedge Avenue and Park Street from Dunkley Street to Michigan Avenue will begin on Monday, July 11. A fog seal will be applied to the street and pavement markings will be repainted to right-size vehicle lanes at 11-feet. Bike lanes and designated parking areas will also be added.
