Road Program: Paving and Curbing Projects

9/10/2021

Week of 9/13/2021 – Construction Stake-out (Survey) of new curb will continue on:

  • Woodrigde Drive
  • Buck Road
  • Springdale Road, and
  • Old New Road

Survey stake-out will include the placement of wood survey stakes approximately every 50’ or less, 5’ behind the exiting edge of the combination curb and gutter within the existing roadway right-of-way. Residents are requested not to remove or disturb the survey stakes, as replacing them will add delay and cost to the project.

As of Friday 9/10, Reasmstown Excavating and their subcontractors will have completed the removal and installation of curbing on Willow Lane and Westaway Lane, totaling approximately 6,600 lineal feet (1.25 miles). Reamstown will move to the intersection of Woodridge Drive and Buck Road, then to Buck Road, and Springdale Road

  • The exiting combination curb and gutter will be removed in front of their property and there will be open trenches at times. The curb and gutter in front of their driveway will be removed and temporarily replaced with stone.
  • Access to residential driveways will be restricted temporarily during the day (when work is in being done in front of their property), however access will be restored as soon as the demolition/removal is complete.
  • When the new curbing is installed, access will be restricted to residential driveways for a day or two while the concrete sets.
  • Driveway grades will be adjusted as needed to meet the new curb elevation. Maximum length of driveway adjustment is anticipated not to exceed 20 feet from the curbline into the properties, and may be less in most cases.
  • Contractors will be allowed to store equipment and material within the existing road right-of-way, which includes in the roadway and/or the grass area immediately behind the exiting curb and within public right-of-way. All grass areas that are disturbed during construction will be graded, top soiled and seeded.
