Construction activities on 5th Ave NW Phase 2 will resume on April 19th, 2021. Starting April 21st, 2021 5th Avenue NW will be closed from 7th Street NW to 12th Street NW. The roadway will remain open to local traffic only.
A detour route will be in effect for the duration of the closure. The detour will run from Main Street to 9th Avenue NW and then back to 5th Avenue NW via 12th Street NW.
Updated maps for all road closures will be posted on the City of Valley City’s webpage https://www.valleycity.us/engineers/ when they are taking affect. If you have any questions regarding the project, please contact KLJ at (701)-845-4980

Phase II of the 5^th Ave NW reconstruction has been suspended for winter. The roadway opened to residents October 21^st  so they could all get in their garages prior to the weather. Permanent signage will be placed the week of Oct. 26 and the roadway will open to the public at that time. A temporary material consisting of a blend of aggregate and crushed asphalt has been placed and compacted on sidewalks that have not yet been completed so once things freeze solid homeowners will be able to maintain and clear snow. With 5^th Ave NW not being a designated truck route, per Section 14-12-29 of the VCMC, the maximum axle load would should be 12,000 lbs. As long as we abide by that we should not have any other concerns of any travel restrictions on that road. The final construction work will be completed late spring/early summer in 2021. If anyone has questions or concerns please contact KLJ at 701-845-4980.

Starting August 18th, 2020, the intersections of 2nd and 6th Street NW along the 5th Ave NW corridor will be closed for paving operations. The intersections will remain closed until paving operations are completed later this week.

The current detour route will remain in effect. The detour runs from Main Street to 9th Avenue NW and then back to 5th Avenue NW via 12th Street NW.

Updated maps for all road closures will be posted on the City of Valley City’s webpage https://www.valleycity.us/engineers/ when they are taking affect. If you have any questions regarding the project, please contact KLJ at (701)-845-4980.
