The following work was completed last week:
A valve cluster on 3rd Avenue was replaced. The large water main valves were the original valves installed in the 1950s. Three water services (pipes from the main line to buildings) were replaced. Water service to five planters was installed to allow for irrigation.
This week, the fire hydrant on the north side of Oliver Street near 3rd Avenue will be removed, and more water services will be replaced.
Civil works are expected to last another five weeks. There will be intermittent periods of traffic disruption. Work is anticipated to be performed from Sunday to Thursday during daylight hours. In an effort to perform the work while keeping the downtown open and accessible, traffic and street parking on Oliver Street will be limited to the north lane only while contractors are at work. While steps will be taken to mitigate disruption, schedules and traffic restrictions may change if circumstances require.
The public is asked to exercise caution in the area of construction and to obey signs and the instructions of flagging personnel.
