The project has hit another significant milestone,
installation of the first layer of asphalt pavement. Once the asphalt pavement
is installed, the amount of dust will be greatly reduced and a smooth driving
surface will be provided.
The contractor will perform manhole adjustments over the
next week. As this process occurs, vehicles will need to maneuver around
additional barrels and barricades to avoid hitting the raised manhole covers.
The contractor will begin planting trees as well next week.
The contractor will only plant the trees during this construction season. The
remaining shrubs and perennial plantings will be planted in the Spring of 2018
to provide a better chance of survival.
If all goes as planned, a majority of the construction will
be completed around mid-October.
