Pine Street permanently closes for courthouse expansion in Grand Island

Gano Street in Providence will be closed on March 29 and 30 for the demolition of the Washington Bridge pier, with detours in place for motorists and pedestrians. During this closure, the on-ramp to I-195 West will remain open, while lane closures will continue for two weeks after, limiting traffic to one lane from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Additionally, Pine Street in Grand Island, Nebraska, will permanently close starting March 29 as part of the Hall County Courthouse addition project, which involves demolishing two buildings. The $40 million courthouse expansion aims to improve space and security, and includes plans for parking where the old jail stood. County officials anticipate possible changes to the project scope as they finalize plans, ensuring compliance with current building codes. The projects in both locations reflect ongoing infrastructure improvements to enhance public services.
