4 thoughts on “Westfield unveils 8-year, $186M infrastructure plan

  1. Finally the underpass for the Monon trail at 161st!.

    Westfield has sadly lagged infrastructure. Instead of being proactive and building appealing and efficient urban roadways with curbs, sidewalks, and medians, Westfield has has rebuilt rural roadways to meet current demand. Once one crosses 146th from Carmel, the poor infrastructure is clearly and depressingly evident.

    But, alas, the bulb was turned on and arterials will be improved. While city decision-makes may have thought the improve-as-you-grow method was less costly, it has proven not to be so. The haphazard fixes, additional turn lanes here and there, and the prevailing undulating {rural} roadways have long since passed their utility with today’s traffic volumes. Westfield continues to grow and the infrastructure should be designed for the future a priori, not a posteriori.

  2. So the tunnel at 161st Street and the Monon, that was estimated to be $6.0M in 2019 is now up to $9.9M. Any guesses on what it ultimately grows to?

  3. Mayor Willis is trying to upgrade Westfield. The prior Mayor only maintained the status quo. Westfield is going to need a lot more investment to bring it into the 21st Century. Willis is doing his best to make Westfield a better City without acting like Brainard. He is not perfect but is trying.
