🚧 Upcoming Infrastructure Work: Broekers Lane Culvert Replacement

The City of New Albany will soon begin work to replace the culvert on Broekers Lane, just north of the intersection with Budd Road. This project is a proactive investment in our infrastructure that will help prevent future roadway issues while ensuring safe travel for residents.

β€œI am happy to finally get this much needed repair underway,” stated Mayor Jeff Gahan. β€œIt has been in the planning stages for quite a while now.”

Recent inspections have shown that the existing culvert has experienced significant deterioration over time, including cracking, shifting, and structural wear. While it has continued to function, engineering assessments recommend replacement as soon as possible to ensure long-term safety and reliability.

What to Expect:

  • Work is scheduled to begin the week of April 13

  • Construction is anticipated to last approximately 3–4 weeks

  • Temporary lane restrictions and/or road closures during construction

  • Clearly marked detours and traffic control measures

  • Residents will maintain access to their homes at all times during construction

We understand this may cause short-term inconvenience, and we appreciate your patience as we complete this important improvement. Thank you in advance for helping us make a better New Albany.
