Progress Report:
- 48th Avenue: The paving crew paved the top course lift last week, spanning from Port Sheldon Street to just north of Oak Lane Drive. Driveways along that span also received the final lift of asphalt. 48th Avenue remains closed to through traffic from Port Sheldon Street to Baldwin Street.
- Baldwin Street/48th Avenue Roundabout: The contractor for the roundabout will continue to work in the intersection this week.
Upcoming Work:
- 48th Avenue: The contractor anticipates laying pipe this week just south of the Baldwin Street intersection. There is also a possibility the contractor will be working at the Rush Creek crossing as part of the restoration process. The road crew will be on site to continue preparations for the road reconstruction between Oak Lane Drive and Baldwin Street. 48th Avenue is closed to through traffic but will remain open to local traffic and businesses.
Notes:
48th Avenue remains closed to through traffic from Port Sheldon Street to Baldwin Street. The intersection at Baldwin Street and 48th Avenue remains closed from every direction for the roundabout construction. Through traffic should continue to follow the posted detour signage.
Residents along 48th Avenue should be aware that crews will be on site restoring the roads and greenspace around the roads.
Local traffic needing access to Sutherland Springs Condominium should do so by turning onto 48th Avenue from Port Sheldon Street.
We ask the public to respect the workers and the closed road. Police will continue to monitor the site to ensure safe working conditions and to ensure the road is only being used by those who live or work on this road. Local traffic should continue to be especially mindful as there will be multiple crews on site next week. The contractor is aware of the difficult traffic situation and will accommodate to the best of their ability.
