During the week of July 8, the contractor for the City of Omaha will shift traffic to new pavement on the west side of Saddle Creek Road between Farnam and Leavenworth Streets. This will enable OPPD and MUD crews to begin utility work along the east side of Saddle Creek Road (between Farnam and Leavenworth Street). Once utility work is complete, the contractor will repave the east portion of Saddle Creek Road, which will allow for the return of two lanes of north- and southbound traffic.
Street work along Saddle Creek Road remains on schedule, nearing its halfway mark. The work around Saddle Creek Road and Leavenworth Street will continue into December.
