Current Projects - Spring 2025
June 2025- Kansas Heavy Construction is the contractor for this project. They have begun clearing trees across the project and will mobilize to the site mid-June. Private utilities, including gas, electric, fiber, cable, etc, are required to relocate their impacted utilities prior to our construction. They are actively working on this. Check the link below for the most current status.
Project updates will be posted here.
The Project:
The 2nd Street Reconstruction Project will improve one of the more heavily traveled routes through Edgerton. The project calls for street improvements, stormwater improvements, sidewalks and streetlighting to make the road safer for both drivers and pedestrians.
The project includes reconstruction of of E 2nd Street from Nelson St to City Limits and W Edgewood Drive from E 2nd Street to W 4th Street. East 3rd Street from Nelson to Martin will also be reconstructed as part of this project. This project is in preliminary design with final design plans anticipated in 2024. Construction is scheduled to begin in 2025. A public meeting will be held in May to present the project to residents and businesses.
City Council approved a contract with Renaissance Infrastructure Consulting (RIC) to complete a land survey and preliminary design for the project. Homeowners along 2nd Street may notice utility marking flags in their yards as part of this process.
June 2025: Sunflower Paving was selected to perform curb rehabilitation throughout the community. This project is anticipated to begin in August. The RFQ for the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) is expected to be released in June.
The Project: The 2025 Street Preservation Program will include an update to our Pavement Condition Index (PCI) and curb rehabilitation throughout Edgerton. The City is evaluating various options to perform the PCI and has applied for state grants to offset the cost.
June 2025: The 2025 CDBG Project is currently in design and inspections are underway. Construction is anticipated in late summer or early fall. Impacted residents will be notified before work begins. Johnson County CDBG has awarded Edgerton $200,000 for the 2025 rehabilitation project.
The Project:
The City is continuing our sanitary sewer system rehabilitation project that started in 2021. The project replaces clay tile pipe with cured-in-place pipe (CIPP), which is a jointless, seamless, pipe-within-a-pipe that will reduce inflow and infiltration of storm water into our sanitary sewer system. Crews will also make point repairs and rehab manholes in the project area. For 2024, the area that will receive work is between Nelson and McCarty Streets, from 1st to 5th streets. The goal of this project is to reduce inflow and infiltration of storm water into the City's sanitary sewer lines.
June 2025: Construction of the sewer extension to the Dwyer Farms Subdivision is complete. Design for improvements for the City lift station and Big Bull Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant is underway.
The Project:
The City is extending sewer service to the new Dwyer Farms subdivision at the corner of 8th and Braun streets. As part of this extension, 1,800 ft. of 18" sanitary sewer pipe will be installed. Additional upgrades to the sewer system and the Big Bull Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant are planned.
The City was awarded a low-interest loan through the State of Kansas, as well as a federal grant from the EPA to reduce the loan amount. The loan will be paid back using RHID funding, which applies to the new housing development. There is no rate increase expected for current residents because of this project.
