Canfield City Council has allocated funds in preparation for phase three of a road resurfacing project in conjunction with the Ohio Department of Transportation.

Council appropriated $212,728 for the resurfacing project Wednesday night. The project plans are to pave portions of state Routes 46 and 62, and U.S. Route 224.

Joe Warino, city manager, said ODOT is set to put the project out to bid in March and hopes to get started by April.

ODOT is paying for 80 percent of the project with the city paying the remainder.

The project is estimated to cost $1.1 million overall. The areas paved will be a portion of South Broad Street from Court Street to the fairgrounds; a portion of Route 224 from the Village Green to Palmyra Road; and a portion of South Lisbon Street from the Village Green to state Route 446.
