Madison Stimson Bids Readvertised for Repaving
Madison and Stimson Avenues bids will be rereadvertised within two weeks as officials seek bids closer to construction estimates. Service Director Dwight Robinson cited last year’s bids being higher than estimates and noted patching work continues on problem streets. Weather and material shortages have hampered efforts, with hot mix unavailable in winter and cold mix unsuitable. Two patch crews will be deployed when better weather returns.
