Feasibility Report that details the scope of work and estimated costs for 53rd Avenue turnabout construction
and multiuse trail. The report details the key project issues and proposed improvements.
The report recommendations for Street Rehabilitation Program are summarized below:
Rehabilitation Strategies:
Staff utilizes three methods in evaluating the condition of the street and then determining the
appropriate treatment. The following is a listing of streets with the recommended treatment:
STATE AID STREET FULL RECONSTRUCTION – P.I.R. 2023-SA-03-002
1. 53rd Avenue, Sullivan Lake Park to Central Avenue
Utilities Replacement:
Utilities have been reviewed. Staff utilized structure inspections, in-line televising, history of water
main breaks, age of water main and services, leakage testing (independent testing), and previous
engineering reports in determining utility replacements. The curb and gutter on the south side of 53rd
Avenue will be removed and replaced 10 feet to the north which will require some storm sewer
modifications. No other major sanitary sewer replacement is proposed. Roadway construction will
include other minor modifications to existing water main, sanitary and storm sewer utility surface
