Sherman Avenue Streetscaping to Begin October 18th
Sherman Avenue at Park Road
Yesterday, Councilmember Graham sent out the following message about the streetscaping of Sherman Avenue and its imminent start:
Dear Friends: I am pleased to announce that DDOT has informed me that the contract for the reconstruction of Sherman Avenue has been awarded. As you may know, I had worked with the Mayor to insure funding for this important project in this fiscal year.
There was a pre-construction meeting with the contractor this week. The contractor is scheduled to start construction on October 18th.
There have been ongoing community meetings culminating in a final design of the streetscape. Thanks for that essential contribution!
This will provide further substantial revitalization for Ward 1, here in our east side neighborhoods.
Please pass this along to others. Bests, CM Jim Graham
You can follow the progress of the project and learn more information on the DDOT Web page, which you can access here.

Have they offered a timeline (or guess) for the completion of this project? I did not see it on the DC website. Thank you!
