Woodlawn Village outlines road, sidewalk and demolition projects; Wayne Avenue work to start April 6
Summary
Manager reported Lee Crest Road planning with OPWC, a Taconic Terrace food‑truck parking lot funded by a Hamilton County grant, Springfield Pike property purchase slated for demolition before end of May, completed Springfield Pike sidewalks, and Wayne Avenue road work beginning April 6 with a July 22 anticipated completion.
The municipal manager told council Woodlawn Village will see several construction projects this year. Lee Crest Road planning is under way with the Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC); the village delayed work until nearby subdivision utility installation is finished. The manager said OPWC allowed an extension to avoid immediate rework.
A Hamilton County revitalization grant will fund a food‑truck parking lot on Taconic Terrace; bids were opened in September and John R. Jurgensson Company was the lowest bidder, with pre‑construction scheduling ongoing. The village purchased a property on Springfield Pike and plans to demolish the structure before the end of May using amended demolition funds from the county land bank.
The Springfield Pike sidewalk project is complete and closeout documents will be prepared. Wayne Avenue road improvements were bid to Rack and Baller; the manager said work will begin April 6 and conclude July 22. Glendale Milford sidewalk improvements and Marian Road projects are in pre‑construction or design phases. The village also received ODOT Safe Streets for All and an active transportation grant and is drafting related RFPs with ODOT.
Council members asked about traffic impacts from nearby Springfield Township construction and requested staff coordinate with the contractor to mitigate heavy truck use on local streets.
Next steps: staff will set pre‑construction dates, finalize demolition scheduling, prepare RFPs for ODOT‑funded work, and coordinate traffic mitigation with neighboring jurisdictions and contractors.
