Week 6

Week of 9/21/2020:

Crews from JMC are moving swiftly on several elements of the project.  The sanitary sewer meter configuration upgrade was completed at the County’s C-Station.  The crew moved operations to Yuba Street where they continued with sanitary sewer and storm sewer improvements.  Work was completed near the Old Farmers Market to make the sewer connection at Murphy Street.  Yuba Street will be closed to thru traffic for approximately 5-weeks.

The restoration of Muskegon Avenue and also Fair Avenue (Bourdon-Addison Alley Sewer) that was necessary to accommodate the sanitary sewer installation received concrete curb and gutter and the base course of asphalt pavement by the end of the week.  We anticipate Muskegon Avenue being open to traffic by Monday afternoon.

The sanitary sewer installation in the Pine Street, Western Avenue, and parking lot area of several businesses between Pine Street and Terrace Street was also completed this week with a second crew and restoration efforts to restore the roadway and parking lot are underway.

We continue to monitor the surcharge being undertaken on Spring Street to for settlement.  Once we receive the intended settlement depth (which may take 4-8 weeks) crews will remove the soil overburden and begin construction on Spring Street.
