SLIDESHOW: O’Neill and Sixth Avenue Reconstruction Project Nears Completion

According to the Belmont Public Works Department, the majority of the of O’Neill and Sixth avenues is complete.

In its weekly newsletter, the department announced that O’Neill Ave. is now open to motorist and pedestrian traffic. Paving work will continue, and grading and landscaping are still being completed.

Starting next week, sidewalks and landscaping will be installed along Sixth Ave. There will be no work done on Nov. 11 in observance of Veterans Day.

Due to the remaining work on Sixth Ave., the street will remain closed until the new traffic striping has been completed.

The scope of the project, which began in July, has included reconstructing the road and adding new sidewalks along with drainage improvements, a street light upgrade and extensive landscaping. In addition, Sixth Ave. is being realigned and narrowed to slow down traffic through the area.

Weekly project updates will be posted on the City of Belmont Public Works webpage at www.belmont.gov. For additional comments or questions, contact the Department of Public Works at 650-595-7425.
