The Lake Road Improvement Project is well underway. The City of Garnett teamed up with the Lake Garnett Grand Prix Revival to apply for the Attraction Development Grant through Kansas Tourism. “Thrive Allen County” assisted in drafting this grant, while numerous individuals provided letters of support, donated funds, and provided valuable information needed for the grant process. The total budget for this project was $500,000. The work done will include concrete replacement over the top of the culvert by the Anderson County Rodeo Arena as well as new concrete over the culvert near Clubhouse Bend Campgrounds. Once the concrete has cured, the lake road will have asphalt patching, macrotexture, and an ultrathin bonded asphalt surface applied for the resurface. The work is being done by McAnany Construction, Inc.
The City of Garnett says many groups and individuals need to be thanked. City officials say that without them, and all other donors and volunteers, as well as the incredible efforts from so many dedicated individuals and groups, the project could not have happened.
