BLOOMINGTON – A multi-use path is being constructed along the north side of 17th Street in Bloomington and accessible sidewalk curb ramps are being installed.
The construction of the project has been divided into two phases. The east phase from Walnut Street to Dunn Street was completed in 2023. The west phase from Monroe Street to Walnut Street is currently under construction and anticipated to be completed in November of 2023.

The project is continuing to the west with a closure to eastbound traffic on 17th Street from Monroe Street to Maple Street.
