The City of Salina today issued the following statement concerning the replacement of the crosswalk at the E. Crawford Street/ Fairdale Road intersection.
The City of Salina Public Works Department is working to have the crosswalk at East Crawford Street and Fairdale Road replaced. The crosswalk was damaged during the windstorm on December 15, 2021 and will need to have both signal poles and their concrete bases replaced before making it operational.
Staff has already ordered the electronic components but are awaiting the replacement poles and bases. Knowing this location is used by many, staff is working with local contractors to expedite the replacement with their current schedules.
We advise pedestrians to use the crosswalk located at the intersection of East Crawford Street and Marymount Road for the safety of all involved.
