City officials in Atlantic are advising residents work on the 2015 Street Improvement Projects are getting underway. Crews with Precision Concrete Services are in the process of doing work on 5th Street, and will be working south from there.

Work on 8th Street will consist of minor patching, and on sidewalks, so that should not disrupt the work taking place next week on Highway 6/7th Street, or the traffic that chooses to bypass on 8th Street. Officials say asphalt work is still a couple months away, so Highway 6/7th Street may be done by then.
