General Project Management
- City presented project updates at BID’s 2026 Partners Meeting on 2/23/26. The next Partners Meeting was originally scheduled for 10/26/26. However, due to schedule conflicts with Mayor Ewing’s North Omaha Townhall at the Highlander Accelerator on October 26th, the North 24th Street BID is canceling this Partners Meeting and will look to reschedule it. We encourage your attendance at Mayor Ewing’s Town Hall to stay informed about programs happening city-wide.
- The City’s subconsultant, Wilson & Co., has finalized conceptual designs of roundabout projects at Binney, Sprague, and Hamilton. These potential future projects are not included in the current project due to the funding limitations. However, the City plans to begin design for the roundabouts at Binney and Sprague with anticipated construction in 2028.
- The City is in the process of scoping the next phase of the streetscaping along North 24th Street from Ohio Street to Patrick Avenue (OPW #54833). Details will be posted on Keep Omaha Moving once our consultant is under contract.
