City Approves Streetscape Improvements for North 24th Street

The Omaha City Council approved the acquisition of land along North 24th Street. The Omaha Public Works Department will improve the land as part of a major streetscape project. The stretch of North 24th Street extends from Ohio Street to Sahler Street. Improvements include pedestrian nodes that shorten crosswalks, on-street parking, sidewalks, landscaping and signage. The project is in final design consideration. Construction is planned to start in spring 2027. – Isaiah Ang
