BULLHEAD CITY, AZ., July 12, 2024 – City of Bullhead City staff and contractors will be working on the following projects throughout our city during the week of July 15:

The Optimum Community Center will be closed as the facility is currently under construction.
T.R. Orr Inc. will continue working to expand the Bullhead Senior Campus Building. The new senior campus expansion will add 9,000 square feet of space to the building, including 7,700 square footage of indoor activity and meeting space and 1,300 square feet of covered outdoor patio space. Construction is expected to wrap up around August 2024.
A contractor will be rehabilitating the 18-2 lift station located just Southeast of the intersection of Highway 95 and Laughlin Ranch Blvd. The project involves installing paneling made of Predl material to protect the well from corrosion and other enhancements to prolong the system’s lifespan.
Contractors working on behalf of Bullhead City Utilities will be completing asphalt and concrete repairs around the City in places where recent water line repairs were made.
McCormick Construction will repair the asphalt at 2164 Highway 95 on Thursday, July 17 and 18, from 9 p.m. until the following day at 5 a.m. Northbound traffic on the highway will be reduced to one lane in the area while work is performed.
A project to install new street lights in various locations along Silvercreek Road as a part of a Highway Safety Improvement Project is nearly complete.
The Tiny Tots playground at Ken Fovargue Park will be closed for improvements. A new shade cover over the playground has been installed and new landscaping improvements are currently underway. The project is expected to be completed before the end of the month.

The City reminds the public to only flush human waste, toilet paper, and grey water down the drain. All other waste products should be disposed of through other means to avoid damage to the city’s infrastructure.
