The parking lot at Junot Park is temporarily closing for construction.
The closure will take place weekday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. and is to allow for the installation of a pedestrian crossover in the area.
In a statement, the city says “The improvements include installation of a pedestrian crossover linking to the park, replacement of sidewalks on both sides of Junot Avenue between Red River Road and Stardust Crescent, and replacement of ramps on a walkway on Melon Street. After the crossover is installed, the parking lot will also be restored, with the addition of some new pedestrian connections.”
The park will remain open while the work takes place.
Once installed, the crosswalk will provide a safer crossing for residents at Junot Avenue and Melon Street.
Work is expected to be complete by mid-August.
