The City is partnering with MnDNR Fisheries who have secured grant funding for a fishing pier and five fishing stations on the western shore of Clear Lake. The City is partnering with Rice Creek Watershed District for additional shoreline restoration work. The reconstruction of the unimproved section of Eureka Avenue (Hornsby St NE) located in the City of Columbus will not be included in this project and will be completed by the City of Columbus as a separate project at a later date.<\/p>\n<p>The estimated construction cost of the project is $4.5 million with preliminary construction activities and placement of a soil surcharge anticipated to begin spring of 2026. Street reconstruction activities are planned to begin spring 2027 and be substantially complete by November 2027. Minor cleanup and restoration work is expected to be completed by July 2028.<\/p>\n<p>Eureka Avenue will be open while the surcharge is in place (Spring 2026 \u2013 Spring 2027). The road will be closed beginning spring 2027 through November 2027.\u00a0 Access to the boat landing will be made available to get vessels on and off the lake as needed.<\/p>\n<p><!-- [if !supportLists]--><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Mulish, sans-serif\">Contractor<\/h4>\n<p>Forest Lake Contracting, Inc.<\/p>\n<h1>Project Objectives<\/h1>\n<p>The main objectives of the project are to reconstruct the degraded roadway, provide pedestrian facilities to improve safety along the corridor, minimize environmental impacts, restore the Clear Lake shoreline, and maintain shore fishing access.<\/p>\n<p>Several potential roadway layout options have been analyzed with the goal of maximizing street and pedestrian facility widths while minimizing environmental impacts to Clear Lake and wetlands along the corridor.<\/p>\n<p><!-- [if !supportLists]--><\/p>\n<h1>Project Map<\/h1>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/clients.bolton-menk.com\/forestlakeeurekaave\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/323\/2025\/07\/Eureka-Ave-Location-Map.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"Eureka Ave Location Map\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6Ijc3OSIsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9jbGllbnRzLmJvbHRvbi1tZW5rLmNvbVwvZm9yZXN0bGFrZWV1cmVrYWF2ZVwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvc2l0ZXNcLzMyM1wvMjAyNVwvMDdcL0V1cmVrYS1BdmUtTG9jYXRpb24tTWFwLmpwZyJ9\"><br \/>\n<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/clients.bolton-menk.com\/forestlakeeurekaave\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/323\/2025\/07\/Eureka-Ave-Location-Map.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"10200\" height=\"6600\" \/> <\/a><\/p>\n<h1>Schedule<\/h1>\n<p>The following is the anticipated project schedule:<\/p>\n<p><b>Nov. 2025:<\/b> Award Project to Low Bid Contractor<\/p>\n<p><b>Nov. &#8211; Dec. 2025:<\/b> Preliminary Construction Activities<\/p>\n<p><b>Mar. &#8211; Apr. 2026:<\/b> Shoreline Restoration and Soil Surcharge Placement<\/p>\n<p><b>May 2026 &#8211; May 2027:<\/b> Soil Surcharge Waiting Period<\/p>\n<p><strong>May &#8211; Nov. 2027:<\/strong> Soil Surcharge Removal and Street Reconstruction<\/p>\n<p><b>May &#8211; July 2028:<\/b> Minor Clean Up and Restoration<\/p>\n<h1>Contact<\/h1>\n<p><strong>Chad Quigley<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"mailto:chad.quigley@bolton-menk.com\">chad.quigley@bolton-menk.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>651-328-7709<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Project Overview The Eureka Avenue Improvements project includes full reconstruction and minor realignment of the existing street including the addition of curb and gutter and pedestrian facilities on one side of the street from the western City limits north to 11th Avenue SW (CSAH 32), as well as sanitary sewer forcemain replacement, stormwater improvements, and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"elementor_theme","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
