Street work is taking place this week pursuant to the City of Powell’s Street Maintenance Program.

Scioto Street will be closed from Hall Street to Liberty Street for the reconstruction of the Scioto and Liberty Street intersection.

In addition to the intersection work, residential street work is projected to start Friday, July 24. This work will mainly be curb repair and storm inlet repair for the first four weeks. Pavement milling is tentatively slated to start late August with paving and striping to follow.

Work scheduled this year includes repaving Liberty Ridge Avenue, Payne’s Depot, Welywn Drive, Shale Ridge Court, Valley Place and a portion of Beech Ridge Drive. Milling and overlay of Sycamore Ridge Drive, Grey Oaks Drive, Wallsend Court and Oklahoma Court will also take place.

Each year, the Engineering Department assesses each section of roadway utilizing the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) Pavement Condition Rating (PCR) System, which considers various road condition elements. PCR values range from 0-100, with less than 60 PCR being considered poor road conditions.

Funding for the annual Street Maintenance Program comes primarily through gasoline tax revenues. This year’s contract totaled $744,496 with Columbus Asphalt Paving, Inc..
