Other roads slated for repaving are near Cornwall Park neighborhood

The section of Meridian Street between Birchwood Avenue and Interstate 5 is not the only road whose neighbors could be disturbed by night noise this summer. Three other roads are slated for repaving, and each is just outside the Cornwall Park neighborhood.
The section of Woburn Street between Barkley Boulevard and Sunset Drive (just east of the Cornwall Park neighborhood) and the section of Kellogg Road between Meridian Street and Cordata Parkway (just north of the neighborhood) will also be repaved over the course of eight nights in August.
The stretch of Bakerview Road between Deemer Road and Irongate Road (just north of the Cornwall Park neighborhood) will be repaved in June and will take ten nights to complete.
Repaving will occur between 7 p.m. and 5 a.m. on planned work nights. All three repaving projects are exempt from usual nighttime noise restrictions, which affect the hours between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m.
