Last week, the first layer of asphalt pavement was installed along the remaining portions of Central Road and Glendale Drive from Central Road to Westview Road.
The contractor also continued with landscape grading,
installing topsoil, and laying sod along Central Road and Glendale Drive The
contractor will continue with landscape restoration this week with the hopes of
having all the sod installed by the end of the week in this area. The sod will
be evaluated again in the spring to ensure a healthy stand of grass is
established and repair any areas that have settled.
By the end of this week, the contractor is anticipating to have all of the underground utility work completed associated with this project. There are only a few minor items remaining to be completed.
The contractor also started the roadway reconstruction
process along Westview Road from the west end towards Glenayre Drive.
This week, the schedule includes concrete curb & gutter
being installed along Westview Road on Monday or Tuesday, November 17th
or 18th. The contractor will continue with the roadway grading
following the concrete curb & gutter installation. The first layer of
asphalt pavement is currently scheduled for the end of this week or beginning
of the week of November 24th. It is anticipated the first layer of
asphalt will be installed along Westview Road prior to the Thanksgiving
Holiday.
The current schedule includes installing the final asphalt
surface layer on all roadways with concrete curb & gutter that have been
previously paved with the first layer of asphalt. This work is scheduled for
the first week of December.
As evident by the falling temperatures, the construction
season is coming to an end. The contractor is committed to getting as much work
completed this year as possible and weather permits. We are still evaluating
the extents of the work that will be completed. Whatever roadway reconstruction
is not completed this year, a temporary asphalt surface will be installed for
easier travel and snow-plowing operations. The roadway improvements will then
be completed in 2015 and the temporary asphalt will remain in place until the
roadway is reconstructed.
Thank you again for all your patience and understanding
throughout the entire construction process, it has been greatly appreciated. We
do understand what a huge inconvenience living in and around a construction
site can be. We hope you are satisfied with the end result as the asphalt
pavement and landscape restoration is being completed.
