CAP2308 Major Road Improvements

Vinsetta Boulevard:

Final paving of Vinsetta is scheduled for Thursday and Friday this week. The contractor will also be working on cleanup and lawn restoration.

Normandy Road:

The contractor has completed water main installation and the new water main will undergo testing this week.

Normandy Road will be closed to thru traffic throughout construction. Residents with driveways on Normandy will still be able to enter the construction zone via the side streets to access their property. Businesses should direct their patrons, employees and deliveries to use Coolidge to access Normandy Road to minimize conflicts with construction work.

Lincoln Avenue:

Lincoln Avenue is substantially complete. This week the contractor will work on finishing the remaining pavement markings, and start sign installations and island landscaping.

CAP2305 Concrete Repair Program

This week the contractor is continuing work in the Phase 5 neighborhood, working on the second halves of the project streets. The contractor has also begun work prepping for new speed hump installations on Buckingham Road, which will be installed in the next few weeks.

Work in Phases 1-4 is substantially complete.

Work will only be performed on one side of the street at a time, to maintain access for residents throughout construction. Only the worst sections of concrete pavement will be removed and replaced, not the entire roadway. If driveway access will be affected, residents will be notified the day beforehand via doorhanger.

The map below shows the project streets highlighted in LIGHT BLUE.

CAP2310 Water Main Improvements

Longfellow

Road, curbing and driveway restoration continues this week. Once the new concrete has fully cured, driveways will be reopened. The contractor will also be working on cleanup.

Sixth Street

This week the contractor will be transferring individual residents' water services to the new main - this work will begin after the 4th of July holiday. These connections usually require a short duration water shut off and the contractor will notify residents beforehand.
