MAP: Main Street, Landsdowne Subdivision, Lynbrook Street Ready for Summer Construction

North Canton has a few construction projects up its sleeve for the summer (some already underway), and we want to make sure our readers are prepared.

We sat down with City Engineer Jim Benekos this week to take a closer look at those projects, when they begin and end and who they will affect.

Looks like the biggest project is the North Main Street Reconstruction, Phase 6, which means the addition of a center turn lane for people looking to get into places like and a little easier.

The construction will slow traffic down quite a bit as the road goes down one-lane traffic in each direction, though. ("It's a temporary inconvenience for a permanent improvement," Benekos reminds us.)

And the rest are smaller projects segregated to smaller portions of neighborhood streets and subdivisions.

So check out our Mapquest map we built to see what the city's summer construction plan looks like and see information below about the projects' total costs and tentative dates for start and completion.
