  • Impacts:
    • Only 1 lane of through traffic will be provided on each street throughout the length of the project. Parking will be available in the coned areas where construction is not occurring. This will not be advertised.
    • The bike lane is closed on both streets indefinitely.
    • Pedestrian access is 100% and detours are provided (w/ flagman in some cases) where construction activities necessitate a closure of the sidewalk.
    • Temporary Bus stops are in operation.
    • There is a lot of demolition scheduled, we will try to keep it between 8 to 3 if possible.
  • The Contractor is trying to pave out the job after the New Year but the City has added numerous Curb Ramps and Alley Aprons that still need to be removed and replaced.
