Phase IIIB Streets Reconstruction

The second set of nine streets is being replaced as part of the Phase IIIB Street Reconstruction Project.  The nine streets are Curry Drive, Ash Glen Lane, Truitt Street, Alpha Drive, Alta Oaks Lane, Amhurst Lane, Ashlock Drive, Avery Lane, and Blair Oaks Drive.  The streets will be reconstructed to the same width that currently exists with six inch thick concrete reinforced paving.  Sidewalk and driveway returns within street right-of-ways will be reconstructed.  Drainage improvements and new water and wastewater lines are being installed during the project. 

In addition, the project includes improvements to the drainage on the Roberts Drive alley.  Construction consisted of the installation of a storm drain system to intercept storm water flowing down the Roberts Drive alley. Alley reconstruction was necessary for a portion of the alley to install the required drainage.

UPDATE:

The parking lot on Blair Oaks has been completed.  Weather permitting, the Parks Department will begin using it on November 15th. 

The contractor has planted St. Augustine grass on Blair Oaks, Ash Glenn Lane,  Amhurst Lane, and Alpha Drive.  They will begin planting Bermuda grass this week.

Paige Road Reconstruction

The contract includes the reconstruction of Paige Road from South Colony to North Colony from four lanes to six lanes.  Sidewalk, alley, street, and driveway returns within the streets' right-of-ways will be reconstructed.  Drainage improvements, new water and wastewater lines, and a wastewater force main are being installed during the project.  This project also includes expansion of the parking lot to the North at Hawaiian Falls.

UPDATE:

The contractor has placed the concrete for all of the main lanes from North Colony to South Colony with the exception of the intersections. They are currently placing the intersections one half at a time, as well as placing the left turn lanes and mountable curbs.

Memorial Drive

The segment of Memorial Drive to be constructed is the eastbound lanes from Blair Oaks to Paige Road. Work shall include all components necessary for the construction of Memorial Drive, including paving, water, wastewater, and storm drain installation. Construction began on Memorial Drive in November 2007. 

UPDATE:

The contractor is currently planting the trees and shrubs.
