10th Street Concrete Work To Finish By Wednesday

Work on Cookeville’s East 10th Street is slowly but surely coming to an end.

Public Works Director Blake Mayo said they hope to finish concrete work by Wednesday.

“We still have a few odds and ends, like some top soil some seed and straw, there’s a new sign that needs to be constructed on the Darwin Park subdivision,” Mayo said. “The orange barrels aren’t completely going to disappear, but we are getting a lot closer.”

Mayo said there still may be temporary closures while crews do work behind the sidewalk, but should not take long. He said with the current forecast, it should take about two weeks to finish the project completely.

Mayo said the department is excited to finally be able to cross the project of its list soon.
