NORFOLK - It was a packed house at the Norfolk City Library for something you might not expect...a presentation on street improvements.

Officials with the City of Norfolk held an open house on Tuesday to show the public the 1 and 6 Year Street Improvement Plan.

Norfolk Mayor Josh Moenning says holding events like these are important to hear the public's feedback.

"I was really pleased with the turnout tonight. This is the most people I've ever seen at a street meeting for the City of Norfolk. This year we really put emphasis on promoting this event because it's important that we have an ongoing conversation with citizens about how we improve streets throughout the community." Moenning says.

People were free to leave comments and ask questions about the plans.

Included in the one-year plan is miscellaneous street maintenance work and widening Benjamin Avenue from four lanes to five lanes at 13th Street to 1st Street.

Included in the six-year plan is a roundabout at 1st Street and Braasch Avenue and a possible bridge replacement on 1st Street at North Fork.
