Shaker Boulevard To Be Repaved April 10

SHAKER HEIGHTS, OH - Shaker Heights will be repaving Shaker Boulevard starting April 10. There will be a public meeting on the project on April 4. The street will be under construction until at least early November, the city says.

According to the city, the repaving project will be done in four phases. The first section of the project will take place on Shaker Boulveard between Coventry and Lee and will start on April 10. That portion of the project is expected to continue until late May.

The second phase of the project will take place between Warrensville Center and Green. That phase will start in late May and will end in mid-July.

The third phase of the project will take place between Green and Sulgrave. That phase will start in mid-July and will end in mid-August.

The final portion of the Shaker Boulevard repaving project will start in mid-August and will stretch from Lee to Warrensville Center. That portion of the project is expected to finish in early November.

During the project, through traffic in both directions will be closed on Shaker Boulevard. There will also be no on-street parking between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. Permits for side-street parking will be distributed to residents who live on Shaker Boulevard.

If Shaker Boulevard is part of your daily commute, the city says you'll need to find an alternate route. South Woodland is expected to receive heavy traffic during the stretch of the construction.

The April 4 community meeting to discuss the project will be held at Stephanie Tubbs Jones Community Building, 3450 Lee Rd.
