Week 10 Update

Work Completed the Week of July 12:

BEI began connecting remaining water services off the old water main and connecting them to the new water main this week.  The Contractor then turned their attention to preparing for placement of concrete curb and gutter by grading the aggregate base course.

Upcoming the Week of July 19:

The concrete Contractor will be on site Monday to place the first phase of concrete curb and gutter utilizing a curb machine.  The concrete must be constructed in phases to allow the concrete time to cure while still maintaining access to local businesses and side streets.  BEI will also begin preparation work by placing sand behind the curb and gutter in preparation of concrete sidewalk.  The Contractor intends to make their final water main connection on Tuesday and the new water main will be fully operational.  The existing water main will be abandoned and filled with flowable fill.  BEI will continue with aggregate base fine grading and preparation work for concrete sidewalk placement.  The intent is for the concrete Contractor to be back on site later in the week to place the remaining curb and gutter, sidewalk, and sidewalk ADA ramps.
