Utility Project on Buffalo's Main Street Advancing According to Engineer
The City of Buffalo is nearing the completion of its portion of the Main Street project, with the utility line replacement making significant strides. According to WYDOT, the paving of Main Street from Fort Street to Hart Street is expected to start by mid-August 2025, following the completion of the city's segment of the project [1][3].
The utility line replacement, overseen by Project Engineer Brent Bennett with Nelson Engineering, is a crucial part of the ongoing Main Street project in the City of Buffalo. Utility lines are currently being replaced under the street, with approximately one week to ten days remaining for the completion of this phase [2][4].
WYDOT is responsible for the paving of the section of Main Street from Fort Street to Hart Street. Other sections of Main Street paving have already been completed, such as from the Bypass Road to Interstate 25 [2]. Updates indicate ongoing work with coordination between WYDOT and the City of Buffalo before paving the northern segment.
For the latest project information, WYDOT’s Senior Public Relations Specialist Laura Dalles can be contacted [1]. It is important to note that as of early August 2025, no exact date has been provided for the start of the paving of Main Street from Fort Street to Hart Street, but this timeframe is the latest update available.
The Main Street project, which is part of WYDOT's larger initiative, is ongoing in the City of Buffalo. Once the utility line replacement is complete, the city's portion of the project will be finished, paving the way for the paving of Main Street from Fort Street to Hart Street [1][3].
