NPL, a contractor hired by Nicor, arrived on-site to begin
installing new gas main and services to all homes in the project area. The
contractor is starting to work on the south end of the project along Central
Road. Once the work is completed along Central Road, the contractor will
continue move to north along Glendale Drive and Glenayre Drive.
We have met with the general contractor hired by the Village
to perform a majority of the work, DiMeo Brothers. The contractor is currently
allowing the gas main contractor some time to get ahead of him prior to
starting the major construction work. DiMeo is anticipating to start project
preparation work including mobilize heavy equipment, grinding the existing
pavement along Central Road, set-up traffic control, install erosion control
measures, and other items of work the week of June 30th.
Major underground utility construction along Central Road is
expected to start the week of July 7th, following the July 4th
Holiday.
We understand there are a significant amount of private
improvements within the public right-of-way including boulders, paver blocks, irrigation
systems, invisible dog fences, and driveways constructed of brick pavers,
stamped concrete, or other specialty materials. We encourage you to
please contact either the on-site project representative, Chris Baumann, at cbaumann@baxterwoodman.com
or the Village Project Manager, Russ Jensen at 847-904-4418 or rjensen@glenview.il.us
at your earliest convenience to discuss relocating or removing these improvements
prior the construction work beginning.
The start of the major construction work is coming up soon
after many years of planning. We ask for your patience and understanding during
the construction phase due to the many inconveniences that you will experience
over the coming months. We will do our best to minimize these inconveniences to
the greatest extent possible and keep you updated on the progress of the
project.
