EDA Main Street Revitalization Project

Coming soon: A safer, more attractive Historic Main Street
NWNatural has completed work between 5th Street and the Main Street Bridge and have moved to 7th Street. There will be no disruption on Main Street during this time. They plan to complete their work by end of day Monday, February 24th.
Week of February 24th – 28th:
On February 24th the east bound lane (South side) of Main Street (Historic District) will be closed and the traffic will remain west bound for the duration of the project.
Wildish will be conducting groundwork to locate existing underground utilities in preparation for the new water main installation. This work will involve cutting pavement and "potholing," and will last through the end of this week.
Additionally, starting on Wednesday, February 26th, Lance Electric will begin the demolition of the traffic signals. This work is expected to take two days. During this time, there will be westbound-only traffic on Main Street in the Historic District. Two-way stop signs will be in place on the cross streets (5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th). Westbound traffic on Main Street will not stop.
Wildish will have detours in place and lane closures. While the southern lane is closed, parking will remain available on north side of the street and in the City parking lots. Access to the sidewalks and all businesses will remain open.
Week of February 17th – 21st:
Mobilization begins on Monday February 17th. Wildish will install fencing for their storage site and begin to gather the equipment in the parking lot across from City Hall. There will be a placement of road barriers along the south side of Main Street.
Due to the weather, the prep work did not move as fast as expected.
NWNatural will complete work between 5th Street and the Main Street Bridge and move to the 7th Street area. They plan to complete their work by Friday February 21st.
City Staff will be on Main Street preparing for the new water main installation.
City Staff is available to answer any questions and will provide up to date information as the project progresses through the Friday Update, on the City of Cottage Grove website, and through TextMyGov.
If you have additional questions or concerns, please contact Shauna Neigh, Project Coordinator at (541)767-4153.
What is included with the EDA Man Street Revitalization Grant?
Project includes street repaving, frontage improvements, and new water and storm sewer utilities. These improvements include new sidewalk; new curb/gutter, pervious pavers in revised parking areas; water main; water services; storm sewer; storm sewer manholes; double lamp poles; vehicular poles with signals; pedestrian poles at crosswalks; street trees; water fountains; new pavement striping, and other improvements such as fiber network cable.
The Main Street Refinement Plan, which was adopted by the City Council in 2015, will guide much of the project, scheduled to begin in the fall of 2023 or Spring of 2024. CLICK HERE to view the 2015 Main Street Refinement Plan. The EDA Main Street Revitalization project also addresses another key component of the need for a Main Street upgrade, the lack of compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. The project will fund new lighting and the replacement of benches and trash receptacles, in addition to the sidewalk widths, and replacement of the trees that have caused damage to sidewalks and buildings with new trees and tree wells more suited to the Main Street location.
