Project Update for N. Central Street

July 21, 2017 N. Central Street Update – This past week, Adams and Sons, Inc., completed the installation of the water main pipeline segments, including services, and fire lines/hydrants, up to the end of the project zone at Woodland Avenue.

The final segment of pipeline main was successfully tested of this final stretch of water main. The only remaining work are the following final side street tie-in connections, which are scheduled as follows overnight next week to minimize impacts to traffic and customers:

• Tuesday evening, July 25 at E. Scott Avenue 
• Wednesday evening, July 26 at W. Scott Avenue 
• Thursday evening, July 27 at N. Central Street to connect to existing water main 

Additionally, crews will complete any remaining asphalt/roadway repairs and general site cleanup next week.  

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.
