The City of Jamestown has received confirmation that interim surface improvements on East 2nd Street are tentatively scheduled to begin the week of June 9th as a short-term measure to enhance drivability and overall roadway conditions along the corridor. This coordinated effort between the City DPW and the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) will involve milling and paving of the westbound travel lane, along with targeted sections of the eastbound lane. These improvements are intended to enhance drivability and support overall roadway conditions until the Route 394 reconstruction project begins at a later date.
Once the DOT-led Route 394 reconstruction is underway, it will involve repaving nearly three miles of roadway in the City of Jamestown, including East 4th Street (from Prendergast Avenue to East 2nd Street) and East 2nd Street (from East 4th Street to Tiffany Avenue). The project will also include traffic signal upgrades, drainage and signage improvements, and pedestrian enhancements such as new sidewalks, ramps, and crosswalks.
Motorists are advised to exercise caution in work zones, obey all posted signage, and anticipate temporary disruptions during this work. Additional updates will be shared as the project timeline progresses.
