City of St. Augustine newsletter (by former Mayor George Gardner) re: Riberia street construction "responding to the pleas fromLincolnville residents"

Riberia Street Project begins April 18

The long-awaited Riberia Street rehabilitation project will begin April 18, the first phase stretching from King to Bridge Street and continuing through January 27, 2012.

The work includes excavation along Riberia for flood control and utility placement. Riberia Street traffic will be detoured along Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Avenue and Bridge Street.

Preliminary work has included relocating underground the overhead utility wires.

Responding the pleas from Lincolnville residents, the city has set aside bond money to complete the entire length of Riberia Street, rather than seeking funds for a series of phases.
