South Bend City To Cut Ribbon On Western Avenue Streetscape Improvements

The City of South Bend will mark the completion of the third phase of the Western Avenue Streetscape Improvement Project with a ribbon cutting at 11:30 a.m. on Wednesday, December 18. Streetscape improvements were made to a four-block section of Western Avenue between Falcon and Dundee Streets. This work added to the streetscape improvements already completed on Western Avenue between Dundee Street and Bendix Drive in 2015 and between Bendix Drive and Olive Street in 2017. The streetscape improvements are part of implementation of the West Side Main Streets Plan to create an environment more inviting to commercial and residential investment.

In addition to celebrating the reopening of the third phase of Western Avenue, the City will also participate in the following ribbon cuttings tomorrow for two new businesses:
