Franklin Street Renovations, Havre de Grace, MD

Franklin Street will be undergoing major sidewalk and street construction in May 2010. Biller's Bikes has customer parking in the rear of the building (off alley/Lodge Lane). Depending on the need, we may use the big corner showroom door as the primary entrance. Easy enough to figure out once you're here.

Here's the minutes from the City Council in 2009 (the work was postponed to the present):

BUSINESS FROM THE MAYOR: 
Comments from Mayor Dougherty: 

He did share the following announcement regarding Streetscape Project in the Havre de Grace Main Street District that will commence in October, 2009: 

“Streetscape improvements will be taking place on the 400 block of Franklin Street, 300 and 400 block of Pennington Avenue and at the intersection of Washington Street, Market Street and Green Street.  The State of Maryland, through the Community Legacy Program, has funded $166,000 to the City of HdG for these improvements.  The improvements include new curbs and gutters, lighting and the continuation of the signature brick sidewalk.  Construction will begin on or around October 12, 2009 taking into consideration the Graw Days celebration.  It is a priority for the businesses to be impacted as little as possible and for the shortest period of time possible. 

These improvements had been postponed previously due to the improvements at the water treatment plant and the impact that project had on access to public parking. It was important that the expansion was completed before any streetscape improvements began.
