Zone: Downtown
Project: 2nd Avenue N Reconstruction Project

Contractors for the City of Fargo’s 2nd Avenue N Reconstruction and Water Main Replacement Project restored access of north and south alley (“Roberts alley”) driveways off of 2nd Ave. N. The driveway for the entrance and exit from the alley has been repaved and underground utilities were installed underneath the sidewalk.

Crews will begin paving the new roadway and curb next week from Roberts alley through the Roberts St. N intersection. Due to the tight work zone, crews will pave by hand throughout the project. The new water main and storm sewer pipes have been installed along 2nd Ave. N from the Roberts alley through the intersection of Roberts St. N as well as a majority of the upgrades to private utilities.

As contractors complete more work on the east side of the project, phase two of the project, impacting 2nd Ave. N from the Roberts St. intersection to 7th Street N, will begin in mid-August, weather permitting.

The current traffic pattern for this project:

  • 2nd Ave. N: CLOSED from west of Roberts alley through the Roberts St. intersection, traffic detoured around the work zone via 1st Avenue N
  • Roberts St. Intersection: CLOSED to traffic in all directions

Access to the Roberts Commons parking ramp is maintained from the north via Roberts St.

Street parking is currently reduced but sidewalks are maintained on the north and south side of 2nd Ave. N, providing access to local businesses and the post office throughout the whole project.

Both phases of the project are scheduled to be completed by late October.
