May 12, 2017 N. Central Street Update – This past week, KUB’s contractor Adams and Sons, Inc., completed water main installation through the Baxter Avenue intersection. Testing procedures continued in this area through the end of the week.
Next week, crews will begin service line connections and fire hydrant installations on the section between Dameron Avenue to the north side of the Baxter Avenue intersection. Crews will also begin scheduling tie-ins to connect side street mains over the next several weeks, including Dameron Avenue, Pearl Place, Hinton Avenue, and Baxter Avenue. Updates will be posted for any side street closures related to tie-in work. The overall project includes installation of the new water main up to the N. Central Street/Woodland Avenue intersection, with completion scheduled for early summer 2017 (weather permitting).
Please note that street parking will be prohibited between Baxter Avenue and Woodland Avenue for the duration of the project.
The overall 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.
Vehicle traffic is advised to remain aware of the ongoing presence of workers, equipment, traffic channeling devices, barricades, and signs in this area.
