Main Street Safety Improvement and Paving Project begins
BINGHAMTON, N.Y. (WIVT/WBGH) – A project to improve safety for pedestrians and motorists along a busy Binghamton thoroughfare is officially underway.
The Main Street Safety Improvement and Paving Project began this week.
The $6.2 million construction project will upgrade intersections and pavement conditions from Front Street to Floral Avenue.
Work includes new curbs, high-visibility crosswalks, ADA-accessible curb ramps, as well as pedestrian crossing and traffic signals at multiple intersections.
Main Street will also be paved during the project.
According to Mayor Jared Kraham, the safety improvements are expected to reduce traffic accidents by 25 percent.
Initial sections will be completed in the fall, and final work is expected to be done next summer.
