Delavan Undergoing Major Upgrades
The City of Delavan is bustling with activity as multiple construction projects are underway, bringing significant updates to infrastructure and modernization to the community. From roadway improvements to connectivity upgrades, these efforts mark an exciting period of growth and development for the town.
One of the most visible projects is the renovation of Route 122, spanning from Oak Street to Route 29. This critical update aims to enhance traffic flow and safety for drivers and pedestrians. Crews are hard at work repaving the road, improving drainage systems, and improving sidewalk access for people with disabilities, ensuring the route remains efficient and accessible for years to come.

In the heart of downtown, buildings on the east side of Locust Street are also getting a facelift with renovations to façades. This effort aims to preserve the historic charm of Delavan’s central business district while refreshing the look of storefronts and encouraging local commerce. Local business owners are hopeful the upgrades will attract more visitors and shoppers, contributing to the area’s vitality.
Additionally, the installation of a fiber optic network by Conxxus is bringing competition and more choice in broadband offerings to Delavan. Crews are laying high-speed cables throughout town, promising faster internet connectivity for both residents and businesses. This upgrade is expected to provide a significant boost for education, remote work, and economic opportunities, making Delavan a more attractive location for families and businesses alike.

While the construction may bring temporary inconveniences such as detours and delays, city officials are confident the long-term benefits will far outweigh the short-term disruptions. Residents and visitors alike are encouraged to remain patient and look forward to the completion of these transformative improvements.
Delavan’s ongoing developments reflect a commitment to growth and progress while honoring its rich history and community spirit. Completion of the projects is expected in the coming months, marking an exciting new chapter for this small but vibrant town.
