KALAMAZOO, MI (WKZO AM/FM) – A portion of Kalamazoo’s Parkview Avenue is scheduled to be closed for several weeks as of Monday, August 14 as crews will work to replace a water main under the street.
According to the City of Kalamazoo, the work is set to take place from Oakland Drive to Whites Road with that section of road likely to be reopened this October.
City officials say the project will prepare Whites Road for a more extensive water main replacement and reconstruction in 2024.
They go onto say that Whites Road will also undergo a “Road Diet” and be converted to a three-lane configuration with the overall goals of improving safety and encouraging drivers to slow down.
