This year, it's Dexter Avenue. In 2014, it's going to be Jackson Avenue. But in between those two projects, Miller Avenue will be under construction in 2013.

Ann Arbor officials are holding a public meeting later this month to discuss the significant improvements planned for Miller Avenue from Maple to Newport.

The city is completing the designs for the project, which will include repaving, utility replacements, improved bicycle lanes, improved pedestrian crossings, installation of sidewalks and stormwater upgrades. City officials said the designs are based on comments gathered from residents during a pair of public workshops held in 2009.

The draft plans for the project will be reviewed at the upcoming meeting and comments will be gathered from the public prior to completing the plans. The meeting takes place at 7 p.m. July 25 at Cavalry United Methodist Church, 1415 Miller Ave.

For more information, residents can contact Nick Hutchinson at 734-794-6410 ext. 43633 or nhutchinson@a2gov.org.
