~ Springfield, MO - The City of Springfield and its project partners are set to host a groundbreaking ceremony for the Renew Jordan Creek Phase I daylighting project on Friday, March 14 at 2 p.m. The event will take place near the intersection of Boonville Avenue and Mill Street in downtown Springfield.
The ceremony will provide attendees with an opportunity to learn more about the project and hear from project partners and granting agencies about their role in making this long-term effort a reality. According to Public Works Project Manager Kirkland Preston, "We are excited to celebrate the beginning of construction and the progress made so far in the effort to daylight Jordan Creek as it flows through downtown Springfield. All parties involved are working diligently to see this transformation finally begin to take shape."

The overall goals of the project include flood reduction, water quality improvements, pedestrian and connectivity enhancements, sustainable greenspace integration, comfort and safety improvements, and sense of place development.
