Project Update for N. Central Street

June 9, 2017 N. Central Street Update – This past week, KUB’s contractor Adams and Sons, Inc., continued to progress north toward the Woodland Avenue intersection with installation of the new water main on N. Central Street. Approximately 1,100 feet of water main installation remains north of the Anderson Avenue intersection.

Crews will continue to install the new water main over the next several weeks. Once the new main has been installed and successfully tested, Adams and Sons will focus on service line connections, fire line/hydrant installations, and final side street tie-ins.

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.
