Future Projects
Every year the City of St. Cloud adopts a Capital Improvements Program to identify potential future projects.
A year prior to proposed construction in a neighborhood, the city holds an informal public informational meeting. The Engineering Department staff provides an overview of the proposed improvements. The residents have an opportunity to ask questions and provide their input regarding the need for the improvements, the scope of the project or raise a particular point of concern. After receiving the feedback from residents at the informational meeting, Engineering staff prepares a report and cost estimate for the project and forwards this to the City Council for their review. The City Council then schedules a public hearing to consider the merits of the proposed improvements.
Current Projects - 2023
The following projects have been ordered by the City Council to be accomplished in 2023.
The City will be resurfacing approximately 15 miles of bituminous streets in 2023.
The project includes reconstructing Cooper Avenue South from 22nd Street South to University Drive South to an urban type roadway with curb and gutter and a bicycle lane in each direction. Sidewalk will be extended through this corridor, along with street lighting. The sanitary sewer and water main along Cooper Avenue South from CSAH 75/Roosevelt Road to 22nd Street South will be replaced, and a new storm sewer system installed. In conjunction with the project, a new 24” transmission water main will be extended along Cooper Avenue South from University Drive to Allendale Drive. Additionally, the signalized intersection at Cooper Avenue South and CSAH 75/Roosevelt Road will be reconfigured with the project to improve traffic flow.
