Day 1; Monday 4/5

Well, today went about as expected. Pavement has been removed from several streets throughout the lower bluff. Fisk Place and several blocks of Kensington specifically. Because of the depth of the pavement on some streets (they had many many layers of overlay through the years), it took a bit longer than expected.
In addition to pavement being removed, top soil was removed to allow for it's re-use during rehab.
Rain is anticipated over the next couple days so the contractor had to lower inlets on those streets that lost pavement. As you see, weather becomes critical and the continued functioning of the systems during a rain event are important as well. If we get an inch or two of rain and the pavement is gone, the rain water will not drain, creating lakes/puddles of water.
With the forecast of rain, you may see limited progress; that applies for the next couple days, but throughout the summer. Rain makes the work zones too sloppy to work.
Access should be made completely available very soon as the contractor is winding down for the day (5:50p). Earlier today, I saw a few neighbors who needed to get in/out of driveways; the contractor was very accomodating to assist them. We like this attitude and approach by the contractor. For residents, be patient and be sure to plan if there is work being conducted directly around your property.
