Project Update for N. Central Street

April 7, 2017 N. Central Street Update – This past week, KUB’s contractor Adams and Sons, Inc., completed testing of the new water main, service line connections, and fire hydrant installations on the section of N. Central Street between N. Broadway and Pearl Place.

The existing traffic pattern remains in place, with both northbound lanes and the northbound bicycle lane closed continuously for the duration of work on this section of N. Central Street. Traffic flow is maintained in both directions, however, with one northbound and one southbound lane shifting to the southbound side of N. Central Street. Southbound bicycle traffic is instructed to merge with vehicle traffic through the work zone. All turn lanes remain open in the N. Central Street and N. Broadway intersection.

Next week, Adams and Sons, Inc., will continue work in the above-mentioned stretch of N. Central Street as they complete side street tie-in connections to the new main. This tie-in work will be completed during overnight hours to lessen the impacts to customers and traffic flow. Below is a schedule for next week’s side street tie-ins for this area of N. Central Street:

• Bearden Place/Stewart Street (Bearden Place and Stewart Street closed at N. Central Street intersection overnight – 11 p.m., Monday, April 10, until 5 a.m., Tuesday, April 11)
• Dameron Avenue (Closed at N. Central Street intersection overnight – 11 p.m., Tuesday, April 11, until 5 a.m., Wednesday, April 12)

All work is weather permitting. Any changes to this schedule will be communicated via this blog and traffic advisories issued to local media outlets.

A one block section on the above-mentioned side streets will be closed to through traffic while tie-ins are completed in that area. All other connecting side streets intersections in this area will remain open.

Vehicle traffic is advised to remain aware of the ongoing presence of workers, equipment, traffic channeling devices, barricades, and signs in this area.
