The Lake Manawa Power Center is a large development with several retail and restaurant destinations near I-80/I-29. 32nd Avenue is one of two main entrances into the shopping center and there is a desire to update the entrance. As part of the Council Bluffs Interstate and Railroad Consolidation projects, the railroad tracks that were located between the South Expressway and Power Center have been removed and relocated. The elimination of the tracks will allow the street to be lowered resulting in an improved street profile.
The project will reconstruct 225 feet of 32nd Avenue from the South Expressway to the east. The project will also construct a sidewalk on the south side of 32nd Ave. from the South Expressway to Manawa Centre Drive and along the west side of Manawa Centre Drive from 32nd Avenue to the existing bus stop just north of the Menard’s driveway. Trail stub outs north and south of 32nd Avenue will be constructed for future trail expansion along the South Expressway. The traffic signal at 32nd Avenue will be modified to provide a north-south pedestrian crossing on the east side of the South Expressway.
This project was included in the FY21 CIP and includes a budget of $150,000 in GO Bond funds and the balance in Sales Tax funds and SSMID funding. The City portion of the construction costs are $318,816.31 and the SSMID portion is $96,021.23.
The project schedule is as follows: Construction Start May\June 2021

| | | | | | | | Recommendation
Approval of this resolution. This project will improve the street profile by removing the existing railroad crossing along 32nd Ave. and provide additional sidewalk for the Lake Manawa Power Center.
