Another block added to Peoria Street construction project

Construction on Peoria Street is a little ahead of schedule so the city is going to add another block to the project.

Peru Engineer Eric Carls says they will pay another $250,000 to resurface, do new curbs and water main replacement on Peoria down to 8th Street. Initially the plan was to only resurface Peoria Street from Shooting Park Road to 9th Street.

Opperman Construction of Pontiac is doing the job for over a million dollars.
