The City has budgeted over $350,000 to replace deficient concrete slabs in Spring Valley Woods Subdivision in 2022. This includes slabs on Ballas View Drive, Ballas View Court, and Trailcrest Drive. A similar project is planned for Bent Brook Road (Spring Valley) in 2023.
Please note that neither the existing nor new concrete is "colored" concrete. While there is some limestone-based concrete around the city, most of the concrete contains Meramec sand and gravel, which provides the orange/brown look. While the new concrete initially appears to be a bright white, over time, the color mellows and the top layer of cement wears off, revealing the brown sand and gravel underneath.
Project Update/Schedule
In the spring, slabs will be marked for replacement and the project will be advertised for bids. The work will occur over the summer.
