Traffic is flowing again on West Front Street in Youngstown, after more than a year of being closed westbound on the street.

City officials expected the project to be completed in August, but scheduling, labor and supply issues obstructed crews from reaching the anticipated date.

 

Both lanes on the road have been paved, but only east bound traffic was allowed to motorists for the last year. 

Shasho said at the time that road crews would occupy the closed lane because there is less space to work due to the narrowness of the newly constructed road. 

 

Shasho anticipates downtown construction to be completed by March 2024.
