Paving work set for Walnut Avenue

Paul Clinton

HILLSIDE DISTRICT -- The City Council has approved a contract to

repair Walnut Avenue, north of DeBell Drive.

The street, which runs along the western border of DeBell Golf Course,

is rife with cracks and potholes. Traffic on Walnut has worn the street

down to only two inches of concrete, officials said.

“It’s in terrible disrepair right now,” Burbank Civil Engineer Ahmad

Ansari said. “There will be some concrete repairs here and there.” Los

Angeles-based Tyner Paving Co. will complete $52,971 in repaving work.

The work is expected to begin in late January and is expected to take

a month to complete.
