Pekin Daily Times The Pekin City Council unanimously approved an amendment to a construction and maintenance agreement with Tazewell & Peoria Railroad, Inc., during Monday’s meeting.

The amendment is for the purpose of installing a large diameter pipe under the railroad tracks on Front Street as part of the city’s combined sewer overflow project, according to City Manager Mark Rothert. The original agreement with the railroad did not specify track outages. City staff and Leander Construction have worked to develop a construction schedule which projects 60 days of railroad track outages.
