West Jefferson Gateway Enhancements Move Forward

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO): At 4 this afternoon, the Fort Wayne Redevelopment Commission will consider a $337,000 contract for cleaning and painting the railroad elevations and installing lighting in order to create, what they're calling, “a welcoming entrance into the downtown area”.
 
The work is proposed for bridges over West Jefferson at Catalpa Street and Lindenwood Avenue just north of West Jefferson. They will be cleaned and painted an orange-red color, and brush and debris will be removed from alongside the bridges. New lighting will also be installed underneath the West Jefferson bridge. Work is expected to begin in late spring and conclude in late summer.
