Well my friends, Farwell Drive seems to be getting busier and busier with construction. I strongly encourage those who do not need to travel this road to get to their home, to take a different route. See notes below on active zones on Farwell.
As of yesterday, the "gang" mail boxes were put in place for residents of Farwell (200-800 blocks) to get their mail at the alternate location on Lakewood Blvd. This mail deliver change applies ONLY to those homes who received the notification last week. We anticipate this delivery location to stay in place until the majority of construction is completed on Farwell. The one good thing mail delivery man Duane reports is that your mail will be delivered much earlier now--you should have mail in your box by 10:30a or so in the morning, versus later in the afternoon!! See, a bit of sunshine with every negative!!!
FARWELL: Water main installation continued yesterday with 120' of main installed before lunch. They also had the entire afternoon to add additional water main. They are still hovering in that 800 block but pushing toward that 700 block of Farwell Drive today. HOWEVER, if you drive on Farwell, you will see piles of gravel, dirt, water main pipes, etc all along the entire Drive.....as I mentioned earlier, it is a very busy and very narrowed road; please use alternate routes if possible.
On the lower end of Farwell, MG&E continues working on the undergrounding project. Considering the problem they had last week boring into our sanitary sewer line, they have requested to open trench a section of their undergrounding in the 500 block. We are trying to coordinate a scheduled spot repair of our sanitary line in this same area before they begin their work in the open trench. Once again, the work zone really limits this road for thru traffic. If you dont need to travel on Farwell, please avoid.
I was recently asked a question about mail boxes and their replacement. Generally, mailboxes are removed from their location and placed deeper into the yard, (sometimes just laid on the ground) and that will continue to be the delivery location. But at the end of the project, the contractor should return that mailbox to a proper location at the street. You should not need to replace that mailbox.
New Castle/Charing Cross: The road crew completed final preparation of the surface yesterday so that today we have confirmed that the Concrete Contractor is in the Village!! Curb and concrete driveway aprons are being installed today!!
