Final 2016 Binghamton Street Work Announced

City of Binghamton officials say nice spring and summer weather is a key factor in keeping road work on track this year.

Officials are announcing the final street paving and preventative maintenance projects for the construction season.

The City has set a goal of working on fifteen miles of streets a year, which puts the roads on a ten year cycle for upkeep.

The final push involves 24 streets, totaling five miles, costing $696,000.
