The city has created a website for the project. The website will be updated with information on the construction progress. In addition, you can sign up for project updates through Notify Me. Notifications will be sent via email to keep you informed.

5. How long will my business be impacted?

While each project constructed in the city is addressed on a case by case basis, the City's desires to minimize impacts to businesses during construction by working directly with the businesses as well as the contractor to address these concerns. At this time, there is no construction scheduled in the immediate future for Auburn Boulevard, therefore, there are no impacts to businesses.
