Construction on the 39th Avenue Greenway project continues to advance as scheduled. As of the end of January, the project is 72% complete and should be substantially finished by summer 2020.

Over the past three months, the project progressed with excavation of the mile-long channel and the construction of four new bridges.

The York Street vehicular bridge is now open and traffic is flowing smoothly in both directions. The Williams Street vehicular bridge will be open this summer. The large sections of the pedestrian bridges, at High and Gilpin Street, have been installed and will open summer 2020.

As of mid-September, the project is approximately 60% complete.

• Approximately 140,000 cubic yards of earth have been removed from the greenway channel for pipe excavation 
•  70,000 cubic yards of earth was placed on the northeast side of the project connecting 40th Avenue to Monroe Street. 
• About 6,500 linear feet of box culverts and pipes have been installed for flood water management.
• Roughly 2,260 cubic yards of concrete was poured and 647,856 pounds of reinforced steel (rebar) was placed on various structures throughout the project, including the York Street bridge, which is now 85% complete. 
• The project also reopened 40th Avenue between Madison and Monroe Street. This work included the removal of the existing bridge, placement of approximately 20,000 cubic yards of earth, and installation of 60” concrete storm sewer pipe that was installed 30’ deep and cast-in-place retaining wall. Finally, roadway features such as curb and gutter, sidewalk, asphalt paving, and striping were installed.

Throughout the next three months, the project will advance down the channel with final construction of the Franklin Outfall and will complete excavation of the greenway, which makes way for the installation of multiple walls along the channel.

In addition, 40th Avenue from Columbine to Clayton will reopen and construction will begin on the Williams Street vehicular bridge, the High and Gilpin Street pedestrian bridges, and residential fencing along properties that line the greenway will commence.
