June 2009


The sanitary sewer and watermain have been replaced from Kent Road to Clover Street.  The temporary water has been disconnected, and the new water service line has been activated.  Work on the new storm sewer has been started.  The road subcut will start this week and proceed from Kent Road to Clover Street.  Granular borrow will be placed as the subcut proceeds.  Expect this work to take one to two weeks.  Additional signage has been ordered for improved business location identification.

Our first construction meeting will be held on Tuesday, June 2, 2009 at 10:00 a.m. at the intersection of Woodland Avenue and Clover Street.  The road surface has been removed from Kent Road to Clover Street with utility work currently underway.  School and DTA buses have been re-routed to accommodate the construction.  Mail delivery will continue uninterrupted.  Notification for water shutdowns and temporary services are occurring.  Qwest is completing the last of their work.  The Contractor’s schedule is posted on the Project Schedule page but is subject to change.

The Contractor will be focusing their efforts between Kent Road and Clover Street for the month of June.  The intersection at St. Marie Street and Woodland Avenue will look the way it does now until mid to late July.  We are not expecting any construction activity at that location until then.  The detour and traffic control, however, must remain in place.  It is important to note that local traffic to the businesses and residences from St. Marie Street to Clover Street is allowed to use Woodland Avenue.  Construction vehicles are in this area, so please drive with care.
