Capital improvement projects continue to move toward completion in Maywood with three major construction jobs scheduled to finish by the middle of this summer. 
 
The 5th Avenue Improvement project will provide a major facelift from Quincy Street to Lake Street.  By the end of May, final placement of brick pavers should be complete and preparations for the final layer of asphalt will begin. 
 
Additionally, some traffic signal work and work around the Union Pacific Railroad grade crossing will be completed as well.  Pavement markings, tree plantings and installation of signs will be the last items addressed on the project.
 
Work is currently under way on replacing water mains on 9th Avenue from Main Street to the northern village limits.  Completion is expected in June. 
 
The resurfacing of 9th Avenue from Roosevelt Road to Bataan Drive is moving forward.  The project includes replacing sections of defective curb and gutter, drainage structure improvements, milling of the pavement, base repair and resurfacing of the roadway.
