Project	Estimated Start Date	Estimated Completion Date
National Road Bikeway Tunnel	May/June 2010	June, 2010
Clarendon Hotel - Phase III	Unknown	Unknown

The National Road Bikeway in St. Clairsville opened for public use on June 26, 1998. It has since become one of the most successful projects in the City and is heavily used by residents and non-residents alike. Two of the more interesting features on the bikeway, the tunnel and the bridge are in line for substantial repairs.

In late May / early June 2010 , final work will be completed in the tunnel. This work includes repairs to the north portal to redirect water and new pavement within. The tunnel will be closed May 26 and 27 while work is being done in the portal. Additional closure dates will be announced.

Clarendon Hotel Phase III will result in completion of the Clarendon Project. The Clarendon will consist of a hotel with 16 rooms and 3 suites, a diner, a fine dining restaurant and a meeting room. The suite rooms can be combined in multiple ways to accommodate not only individuals but also multiple families by connecting two and three rooms.

The Clarendon Hotel was constructed in 1890 with 38 rooms available to travelers along the National Road. In 2001, after years of the structural decline, the City purchased the building with the intent of restoring, rehabilitating and eventually finding a tenant. Phase I of this project is complete. Phase I included the entire cleaning and tuck pointing of the exterior of the structure, restoration and replacement of the windows, interior structural work and roof work.

Stanley Miller Construction began work on Phase II of the hotel project in November 2008 and work finished work May 2009. Phase II consisted of the installation of a fire-rated stairwell inside the building and the construction of an elevator shaft. The elevator cab will be installed as part of Phase III. Regardless of future use, these improvements were necessary to bring the building up to current Ohio Building Code

St. Clairsville Community Garden - Plans are being finalized for the construction of a community garden north of St. Clair Avenue, just east of South Sugar Street. For a small deposit, residents and non-residents will be able to plant a garden on a level, easily accessible plot. Starting March 1, 2009 plots will be assigned on a first come first serve basis. Plot maps should be available by February 1.

National Road Bikeway Bridge is a 522 foot long steel lattice leg bridge. Rehabilitation included replacing structural steel, concrete repair to the north abutment wall, sandblasting of the bridge and painting with three coats of paint.

National Road Bikeway Tunnel found on the bikeway is 532 feet long with an interior that is 40 feet high at some points. A protective fence was added to the southern wing walls, new under drains and catch basins were installed the length of the tunnel. A large section of the interior wall of the tunnel was removed and the inside of the tunnel got a new layer of steel reinforced shortcrete. Much of this work is being undertaken to assist in the diversion of water infiltration.
