The City of Salida says construction on the South Ark Neighborhood Infrastructure Phase I project continues to make significant progress, with a major milestone recently completed.
The onsite utility improvements have been substantially finished, including two river crossings and critical infrastructure work within the open space adjacent to the Arkansas River.
With these improvements now complete, the City has announced that the open space area has reopened to the public. Residents and visitors can once again access the area, including the newly constructed sidewalks leading to and across the pedestrian bridge near the Hampton Inn.
As a reminder, municipal code requires that dogs remain on leash with the open space.
