Aaron Bahr of Kave Construction cuts away concrete on the sidewalk along Narrow Gauge Avenue on Tuesday where the meters will be relocated. The city of Durango is moving the meters so the sidewalk has wheelchair access. The meters will be attached to a fence made of old railroad rails and drilling pipe that will sit behind the sidewalk to encourage pedestrians to cross at street intersections.
Aaron Bahr of Kave Construction cuts away concrete on the sidewalk along Narrow Gauge Avenue on Tuesday to relocate meters as part of the $68,240 city project to provide wheelchair access on the sidewalk. BP America donated pipe and the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad donated track for a fence that will be built behind the sidewalk. Construction is expected to be completed this month.
