VALLEY CITY, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – On Tuesday, September 3rd afternoon motorists will be impacted by Phase II Central Avenue Construction project between the entrance of Hanna Field and 12th Street Intersection near Jefferson Elementary School.

Valley City Public Schools Superintendent Josh Johnson said the City of Valley City told us that Phase II will likely be completed in the next 2-3 weeks.

He reminded parents and guardians to continue walking students to the sidewalk in the morning and pick them up on the sidewalk in the afternoon in the Hanna Field parking lot for the duration of this project. Johnson said we believe this is the safest way for students to arrive and depart school during the project.

He said if you have any suggestions or ideas about how we can continue to create a safe pickup or drop-off zone at Jefferson Elementary School please call Superintendent Johnson, Principal Troy Miller or School Resource Officer Sean Hagen.
