HOT SPRINGS STREET PROJECT NOW COMPLETE
The Hot Springs Urban Reconstruction Project, a South Dakota Department of Transportation (SDDOT) urban street reconstruction project which included concrete surfacing, lighting, curb and gutter, suspended sidewalk, storm sewer, and the City of Hot Springs water and sanitary sewer main upgrades is now officially completed as of December 2024. The project was necessitated by the infrastructure being at the end of its useful life.
The highway through Hot Springs had not had a major rebuild for 50 to 80 years. The lanes were narrow and difficult to maneuver, alignment was not ideal, parking had been an issue and the City's utilities needed an upgrade. All of these substantial elements of the project are now completed resulting in a downtown that features up-to-date streets, sidewalks, and infrastructure. The crown jewel of the project has to be the suspended bridge that is located on North River Street and provides an excellent view of Fall River and Centennial Park.
