From the Mayor

As you have likely noticed, there are a lot of changes going on in Akron!  And even positive changes can mean temporary construction and detours. As Mayor, it is my goal to keep you informed about all the projects impacting your neighborhood and commute.

That's why we created DriveAkron, a City initiative to help us communicate the status of ongoing improvements and share the excitement, as Akron builds momentum for a better tomorrow. With DriveAkron, it’s easy to stay up-to-date on construction projects and traffic alerts, so you can still get where you’re going, anywhere in the City.  From Main Street to your street, DriveAkron has the information you need.

Make sure to get outside and enjoy the variety of activities that Akron has to offer this summer!

• Check out everything that’s going on at Lock 3
• Get tuned in to the events at your local park
• Find out what’s happening in Akron’s arts and culture scene
• Learn about the latest events and games at Canal Park

Lock 3 and Main Street are open for business! Don’t do a U-turn because of the construction. Come down and support our downtown businesses as we work to create a more beautiful and functional Main Street.
