Bids are expected to be awarded for the 2018 Street Maintenance Project during Thursday’s Hays city commission meeting.

The projects in this year’s program include seal coat, micro-surfacing, diamond grinding, curb and brick repair and polypatch. The diamond grinding of Canterbury Drive between 13th and 17th Streets will allow for a lane reduction with the restriping of Canterbury from four lanes to three lanes.

Five contractors with the lowest bids will be recommended for the work at a cost of $1,109,862.24.

Commissioners will also hear an update of the wastewater treatment plant reconstruction.

The complete Feb. 22 agenda may be seen here.

The meeting starts at 6:30 p.m. in Hays City Hall, 1507 Main, and will be streamed live on Eagle TV channels 14 and 614.
