Council selects EBH to engineer Highway 56/Main Street pavement project
Summary
Council approved EBH as the engineering firm for the KDOT‑funded Highway 56/Main Street pavement replacement project, keeping the project on track for construction in 2027. Council noted possible additional funding opportunities that could extend the work.
City staff reported the selection process for an engineering firm to design a KDOT pavement replacement project along Highway 56 (Main Street) and recommended EBH (submission listed as EVH/EBH). The council moved to approve EBH as the engineering vendor so the project can stay on schedule with a target completion in 2027.
Council noted the city had solicited several authorized vendors but received a single submission; staff said the selection keeps the project timeline intact and that an additional funding opportunity might allow an expanded, back‑to‑back construction window but could delay the start slightly. The motion to select EBH passed by voice vote.
Next steps: staff will finalize a contract with EBH and continue coordinating KDOT requirements and schedules for the 2027 construction window.
