ROCK SPRINGS – Orange continues to be the dominate color in the Rock Springs downtown area and will be for the next couple of weeks.
There are two separate projects going on in the downtown area. New water lines are moving down M Street and heading towards Bellview and Elk Street. Whitaker Construction is putting in the new lines.
While the new water lines are headed towards Elk, upgrades to the storm water system are headed in another direction. DeBernardi Construction is the contractor on the storm water upgrades while Jackman Construction is working as a sub-contractor on the project.
While Whitaker had M Street dug up, upgrades to the storm system were also put in. However, the storm water upgrades will head from M Street, through the downtown area by the old senior citizen center and will tie in at Bunning Park.
As residents know, weather plays a major part in the timeline of construction projects. If everything continues to go as planned, M Street should open in the middle of October.
