The final major phase of the Broadway Safety Improvement Project begins Monday, Aug. 10, with milling and paving between Lee and Quincy streets expected to take about two weeks.

The street stays open to two-way traffic for most of the work, though occasional detours or driveway closures may be needed; emergency vehicle access will remain open.
