CAP2308 Major Road Improvements

Vinsetta Boulevard:

This week the contractor is removing and replacing some curbing and bump-outs that were found to be deficient. The contractor will also be backfilling behind curbs and cleaning the catch basins in the work zone.

Normandy Road:

The contractor is continuing work on water main installation this week, between Crooks and Linwood.

Normandy Road will be closed to thru traffic throughout construction. Residents with driveways on Normandy will still be able to enter the construction zone via the side streets to access their property. Businesses should direct their patrons, employees and deliveries to use Coolidge to access Normandy Road to minimize conflicts with construction work.

Lincoln Avenue:

The contractor paved the second layer of asphalt on Monday with restoration work to follow.

CAP2305 Concrete Repair Program

This week the contractor is continuing work in the Phase 4 & 5 neighborhoods.

Work in Phases 1-3 is substantially complete.

Work will only be performed on one side of the street at a time, to maintain access for residents throughout construction. Only the worst sections of concrete pavement will be removed and replaced, not the entire roadway. If driveway access will be affected, residents will be notified the day beforehand via doorhanger.

The map below shows the project streets highlighted in LIGHT BLUE.

CAP2310 Water Main Improvements

Longfellow

Curbing and approaches on the west side will be reopened early this week. Then the city's contractor will begin curbing and driveway approaches on the east side of the roadway.

Sixth Street

This week the contractor will finish installing the final length of water main, then the new main will undergo pressure and bacteria testing for the rest of the week.

CAP2315 Asphalt Resurfacing

The project streets shown in purple on the project map have been divided into three phases as shown below.

Phase 1

Lawn restoration will begin this week of Phase 1 streets.

On Hawthorn, paving between Oakmount and Alexander was on hold for sewer investigations. This week the city found no repairs to be needed and paving will be rescheduled.

On Forest, sewer deficiencies were found repairs need to be performed. This work has been scheduled to star the week of the 26th. During the sewer work, Forest will be completely closed from Alexander to house #524/527, and residents within this section will not have access to their driveways.

On N. Wilson, the contractor has completed adjusting drainage structures for the final height of the roadway. Final paving has not been scheduled yet.

Phase 2

On the west side of Etowah between Lincoln and Hudson, the contractor will continue replacing the curbing and driveways this week. The contractor will then pour the new concrete road base. Existing galvanized/lead water services are scheduled to be replaced the week of June 26th. This needs to be completed before the paving work can continue.

On Hoffman, the contractor will start curb replacement work this week.

On S. Blair, concrete work will begin this week on the east side of the roadway, removing curbing and driveway approaches.

Phase 3

Construction on these streets are tentatively scheduled to begin in July.

Houstonia

Brockton

The contractor plans to begin work on Brockton towards the end of the week. They will do the roadway in two phases, starting with the east end between Stephenson Highway and the first driveway for the school parking lot. Residents will receive driveway access notices before work starts so they can move their vehicles.

Parking: The school is allowing residents to use the parking lot off Brockton during construction. Some spaces will be marked for school use only but the remaining spaces are available to residents to park during construction.

CAP2302 Sidewalk Program

The sidewalk improvement program has begun and the contractor is currently working south of 11 Mile and east of Main Street replacing deficient sidewalk flags.

If you disagree with the estimate for sidewalk replacement adjacent to your home, you can call the engineering office to schedule an appointment to meet with the inspector for the project and review the sidewalk work.
