The construction has led to blocked street parking, which is essential for customers to access the business. As a result, foot traffic has dwindled, causing financial strain on the establishment.
An alderman has voiced concerns about the situation, emphasizing the importance of timely updates from the Department of Transportation (DOT) to keep both business owners and residents informed. The alderman pointed out that effective communication is crucial during such projects to minimize disruption and ensure that local businesses can continue to thrive.
The lack of clarity about the construction timeline and the expected completion date has left many feeling anxious about the future.
