Week 16
Week 16 Update:
The Contractor re-mobilized equipment and began site preparations. The surcharge (sand) material was removed from the roadway between Clay and Webster. The surcharge was intended to accelerate consolidation of the organic material and woody debris that was observed in the geotechnical work during the design phase. The survey work conducted this spring confirmed the surcharge was effective in its application as we achieved a settlement depth of 4-6 inches.
The crew began performing removals of the pavement, curb and gutter, and sidewalk in preparation for water main installation next week.
Upcoming Week of March 29:
The crew intends to construct water main on Spring Street near Western Avenue and extending east to Clay Avenue. Once water main is installed they will begin the process of performing pressure and bacterial testing. The crew may look to place sanitary sewer in this same location once water main is complete.
