Construction Updates

Here's the latest on the various construction projects currently underway

Bellevue Avenue Roadway Improvements

• Construction is ongoing. 
  AETNA construction company is working on Bellevue Avenue's concrete roadway surface which has areas in poor condition. The small areas will be repaired with fast setting concrete.  Large panels in poor condition will be replaced in full.  Due to the immensity of this ongoing maintenance issue, this is a multi-year project which will use funds to address the worst and most cost effective areas with distressed concrete.

Roadway Improvements 

• No roadway improvement projects
• Though access to properties will be maintained, there will be some inconveniences as driveways are replaced, sidewalks are poured, and the road is repaved. 
• Parking may be restricted during the working week from 7 AM to 4 PM.
• Roads and sidewalks in poor condition will be replaced in-kind with the same types of materials.  Existing bluestone curbing will be reset and deteriorated concrete curbing will be replaced with granite per ordinance.  Pavement markings (e.g., stop bars) and signs will be improved. 
• Please cut back your vegetation and remove any objects on the sidewalks, shoulders, and within the City's right-of-way.

​Sidewalk Improvements

  Several areas throughout the City will have their sidewalks reconstructed, curbs reset, and disability access improved in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.  Sidewalk areas in poor condition will be replaced in-kind.

Pavement Marking Improvements

• Construction is ongoing. 

• Road yellow center line striping, crosswalks, stop bars, and other pavement markings will be repainted throughout the city.  Because this work requires large areas of the City and negatively impacts traffic flow, the vast majority of the work occurs overnight (8 pm to 6 am).  This work is ongoing and paint application is highly weather dependent (e.g., wet streets and cold weather prohibits paint installation).
