The City of Lynchburg, in partnership with the Downtown Lynchburg Association, will host a public open house on Monday, September 21, from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at the Lynchburg Museum & Visitor Center to share plans for Phase V of the Downtown Renewal Project. This next phase, currently in design and anticipated to begin construction in spring 2027, will make critical upgrades to aging underground utilities along portions of Court Street, 6th Street, and 7th Street.
The public meeting will be held in an open house format, allowing residents, property owners, businesses, and other community members to stop by at any time between 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. to review project information, speak directly to the City and consultant project team, and ask questions.
Phase V of the Downtown Renewal Project includes the portion of Court Street from 5th Street to 9th Street as well as portions of 6th and 7th streets between Church Street and Clay Street. A significant component of the project is the replacement of waterlines that are more than 100 years old. Planned work also includes maintenance and improvements to sewer and stormwater infrastructure, along with sidewalk and curb repairs.
