May 26, 2017 N. Central Street Update – This past week, KUB’s contractor Adams and Sons, Inc., completed service line connections and fire line/hydrant installations on the section of N. Central between Pearl Place and Baxter Avenue. Additionally, side street tie-ins to the new water main were completed on Hinton Avenue and W. Baxter Avenue.
The contractor will not work on Monday, May 29, in observance of Memorial Day; however, all implemented traffic control measures will remain in place. Construction activity will resume on Tuesday, May 30, as crews are scheduled to complete the side street tie-in at E. Baxter Avenue. Also next week, crews will resume installation of the new water main starting at the Baxter Avenue intersection and progressing north.
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 is prohibited on both sides of N. Central Street 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.
