ON THE WATER
MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council
FROM: Steven M. Gohde, Assistant Director of Public Works
DATE: April 5, 2012
RE: Approval of Temporary Truck Route during Reconstruction of the W. 15th Avenue and
Oregon Street Intersection for Contract 12-04 Concrete Paving & Utilities (South)
BACKGROUND
During the reconstruction of the intersection of W. 15th Avenue at Oregon Street for the south side
concrete paving and utilities contract, Oregon Street will be closed for approximately four weeks.
Oshkosh Corporation uses this designated truck route to move vehicles between its facilities. Oshkosh
Corporation has requested approval of a temporary truck route on West 6th Avenue from S. Main Street to
Oregon Street in order to facilitate transfer of their vehicles from their West 20th Avenue facility to the old
Jeld Wen facility on West 6th Avenue.
ANALYSIS
The proposed alternate route during the closure of Oregon Street at W. 15th Avenue will use designated
truck routes except for the two blocks of W. 6th Avenue from S. Main Street to Oregon Street. This stretch
of W. 6th Avenue has only three dwelling units; one is owner-occupied. Each of these properties has
been sent a notice about the proposed temporary truck route.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Approval of the temporary truck route on West 6th Avenue from S. Main Street to Oregon Street during the
closure of Oregon Street at W. 15th Avenue for Contract 12-04 is recommended.
Respectfully Submitted, Approved:
