Eau Claire Area Improvements construction and detours
Construction update - June 2025
Periodic Concrete Sandblasting
Periodic concrete sandblasting will take place at Eau Claire Plaza, limited to the Play Plaza area, as this area nears completion. Work will occur between 8 a.m. and 11 a.m.
To minimize disruption, work will be conducted during non-peak pathway hours and in short intervals to reduce dust.
Thanks for your ongoing patience as we continue with improvements at Eau Claire Plaza.
Timelines may change due to inclement weather, complexity, supply chain, and/or other unexpected circumstances. We understand construction can be challenging and thank you for your ongoing patience as we improve Eau Claire Plaza.
