The City of Goshen Engineering Department will host a public information meeting to go over details of the Reliance Road and Peddlers Village road reconstruction project January 17 from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Gospel Community Church located at 1677 Reliance Road.

The meeting will have a 5-10 minute presentation follower by an information open house where members of the public can discuss the project with individual project representatives.

As early as the spring of 2023, the City of Goshen is planning to reconstruct Peddlers Village Road between CR 17 and US 33 and to reconstruct Reliance road between US 33 and the north entrance to Brookside Manor. These improvements are intended to accommodate the expected increase in traffic volume as a result of the Elkhart County court consolidation project. The proposed project timeline, including expected temporary road closures and restrictions, will be discussed at the meeting.

A second public meetings will occur at a later date prior to the beginning of the construction. The purpose of the second meeting will be to walk affected residents through the construction process in more detail. This meeting will cover items such as trash pickup, mail delivery, school bus routes, and temporary resident access during construction. The exact dates of this meeting will be established as the project progresses.

Throughout the project process, the City of Goshen will provide updates and communicate important information with additional letters, doorhangers, and resident meetings, as needed. The city’s webpage, www.goshenindiana.org, will also have a project page with updates as the project progresses. Please contact the Engineering Department at 574-534-2201 or engineering@goshencity.com with any questions or concerns.
