The concrete sidewalk improvements are nearly completed on the south side of Glenview Road. It is anticipated a majority of the concrete sidewalk, stamped and colored concrete sidewalk, and concrete curb & gutter replacements will be completed by the end of the next week for the entire project. The remaining concrete to be completed are those areas where the temporary street lights and temporary traffic signal poles are in conflict.

With the concrete work nearly completed, the project will be moving to the next phase, roadway resurfacing. It is anticipated roadway resurfacing will begin the week of September 18th. Roadway resurfacing will include removing the top 2-inches of the existing asphalt pavement, performing repairs to the remaining pavement as needed, and installation of a new asphalt surface. Glenview Road will remain open during this construction; however, lanes will be reduced and flaggers will be present. We do expect significant travel delays, so please plan accordingly.

Thanks for your understanding and patience.
