East Central Closure Extended

from Columbus News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

East Central Avenue in Delaware’s closure just got extended—now reopening June 8th, not May 28th. The delay? Unexpected utility conflicts, according to City Engineer Jonathan Owen. The stretch between Lake Street and the U.S. 36/Sunbury Road underpass is key to the $44 million “The Point” project, designed to ease traffic and boost safety for the 25,000+ daily cars passing through. Detours remain via East William and Lake streets, with local access limited to side streets like Potter, Richardson, and Hammond. Final stretch of “The Point,” launched last year, aims for full completion by August—when the underpass will expand from one to two lanes each way, easing congestion for commuters.
