  8. 2nd St - Project Description the work The Project: • Phase 2 (cont’d) – Paving from US79 to Main Street • Sidewalks designed on both sides of street • New street lighting will be installed throughout • Driveways will be replaced • Many driveways will have to be adjusted due to lowered street; may need to replace driveway behind ROW for optimal slopes • Note proposed driveway locations • Some driveways planned to be eliminated for safety • Some driveways relocated or added for access • Parking • Changes, some parking areas no longer accessible • Due to curb/gutter section, parking along road and shoulder no longer available

  11. 2nd St - Project Description Construction Construction Sequencing / Access • Biggest concern of the project • Plans include specific phasing and sequencing for contractor to adhere to • Final sequencing and phasing will be determined once contractor is selected • Primary issue is to keep access open, traffic flowing, and utilities functioning • In general, having the contractor finish work in a specific area means longer total construction time – as opposed to spreading the work out and having s shorter total construction time • Once the contractor is selected and the number of available work crews is determined, the appropriate balance will be outlined

  12. 2nd St - Project Description Communication • City will inspect the project daily • 2nd evening public meeting before Paving work begins • Further evening meetings as needed • Standing weekly meeting at City Hall for public input / information sharing during construction • Fire/Police closure notifications • e-mail issues, news, access needs • The more involved you are, the better we can deliver this project
