Courthouse Square Infrastructure and Revitalization Project Update- August 10th

Jasper- A progress meeting was held on August 10th, for the Courthouse Square Infrastructure and Revitalization Project. Representatives of Ragle Construction, Rundell Ernstberger Associates, Dubois County, and the City of Jasper attended. Here is the summary of the discussion:

  • The Northeast Quadrant of the Courthouse Square is closed and will remain closed until construction on this quadrant is completed.
  • Construction work continues to follow the pattern: begin at E 7th St, move along Main St, then onto E 6th St, and towards Jackson St.
  • Foot traffic will be maintained at all times.
  • The project schedule has been pushed back approximately one month due to weather, supply issues, and utility conflicts encountered during the waterline installation. Ragle continues to work with vendors/suppliers to expedite material shipments as quickly as possible.
  • The schedule for Phase 1 (NE & NW quadrants) is being reevaluated.
  • The parking lot adjacent to City Hall remains available for 2-hour public parking.
  • The next meeting with contractor representatives is August 24th.
