Downtown Streetscape Enhancements Begin Next Week
Exciting improvements are coming to downtown Barrington! Beginning Tuesday, March 31, Phase 1 of the streetscape enhancement project will kick off along Cook Street, Station Street and the northwest segment of Park Avenue.
The first few days of work will include preparation work, coordination with businesses, marking out project scope, sign removal, and staging. Demolition work is expected to begin on or around April 2, starting on the east side of South Cook Street.
Attachment is a revised phasing plan, which differs slightly from the one presented at the neighborhood meeting. The location of Phase 1 work is shown in orange.
This phase includes the removal of pavers, installation of new sidewalks and clay brick accents, relocation of the trash enclosure on Station Street, and enhanced landscaping throughout, enhancing the look and feel of our downtown.
Construction will continue over the next few months, and the project is anticipated to be complete by the end of June (weather permitting).
All impacted businesses and restaurants remain open! Your continued support during construction makes a big difference to our community.
