The second phase of a new north - south bikeway route from 13th Avenue E . to Main Avenue E . is underway . This phase will complete an 8 - to 10 - foot wide bike path from 7th Avenue E . to Main Avenue E .
Beginning Monday , June 20 , 7th Avenue E . will close between 3rd Street E . and 5th Street Ct . E . for approximately two weeks to remove existing pavement , install storm sewers and pour concrete speed tables . Residents in this area will have access to their homes , but sidewalks will close and there will be no thru traffic . Signed detours will be in place at 3rd St E and 5th St E .
Also beginning Monday , 3rd Avenue E . will reduce to one lane at 4th Street E . for sidewalk repairs and curb replacements for this project . Additionally , crews will conduct saw cutting along the project’s new concrete path during the day and into evening hours , which may cause loud noises and disruptions .
The first phase of this project is from 13th Avenue E . to 7th Avenue E . and it completed in 2021 . The route mostly follows Drain 45 or 4th Street E . and provides better connectivity of trails for many uses , like traveling through Service Club Park . This is part of the City of West Fargo’s vision of to become a healthy community with engaging parks , public spaces , and facilities . This will help provide a range of amenities and experiences throughout a safe , inviting and connected system .
Both phases of the project are receiving funds through a North Dakota Department of Transportation grant that targets projects that benefit a community by improving existing transportation systems with alternatives to driving that improve safety . The remaining costs are coming from the City of West Fargo’s capital improvement sales tax fund . There are no special assessments for this project .
