Construction Begins Monday!!

CONSTRUCTION SEASON HAS ARRIVED!!!

Maple Bluff’s 2010 Capital Improvement Projects break ground this coming Monday, April 5th.

There are two starting points:
1) A storm sewer replacement from the Beach Park along Fisk Place to Kensington Dr.
2) Water main replacement will begin on the 400 block of Kensington Dr. and the MBCC parking lot and continue to the intersection of Roxbury/Kensington.

The western block of Roxbury, 100 block of Cambridge and all of Woodland will soon follow. This southern portion (Lower Bluff) of the 2010 CIP should be nearing completion sometime in June.

When the Village obtains the necessary DNR permits, the northern portion of the 2010 CIP will begin. These areas are as follows:
Farwell Dr. (Lakewood thru the 800 block);

Summit Rd. (Butternut to Farwell)

Magdeline Dr;

McBride Rd.;

New Castle (Lakewood to Kings Way)

Charing Cross (New Castle to Laurel Ln)

This project will address water main, storm sewer, sanitary sewer, street reconstruction. There will be burial of overhead utilities on Farwell from Lakewood to Butternut (south end) and some gas line replacement in the 600-700 blocks of Farwell as well.

The contractor, A-1 Construction, has been mobilizing their equipment in preparation of next week’s start. As you can see, the excavators are very tall. We have and will continue as necessary, to provide clearance pruning on street trees to minimize potential damage during the project.

Trash and Recycle collection will begin at 6:30 am on your collection day so as to minimize conflicts in the active work zones. Please have trash and recycle out extra early.

Yard waste and brush collection will be suspended in the active work zones until opportunity allows for our collection equipment.

Use caution as a pedestrian and as a motorist. Everyone should have access to and from your home during this project. There will likely be times when delays or limitations will occur when excavations are taking place at or near your home.

Thank You for your patience and understanding …
