CANFIELD The Mahoning County commissioners will consider awarding a $6.2 million contract for the Mahoning Avenue Industrial Corridor Upgrade Project during their board meeting this morning. The bid of $6,210,833 submitted by contractor Shelly & Sands is the lowest received for the project, according to the commissioner’s agenda.

The plan involves improvements to approximately 4.2 miles of roadway in Jackson Township, including sections of Mahoning Avenue and Rosemont Road. The project was posted for bidding on April 11, 2023, with an initial estimated construction cost of just over $4.87 million.

County officials say improvements are needed because the corridor is one of the most used industrial corridors in Mahoning County. Businesses in the corridor employ about 2,500 people.
