Thursday; Day 137

Today, the water main crew on Farwell installed about 380'. This leaves approximately 300' left and one more hydrant to install.....close, very close!! However, Fridays are normally a shorter work day so it is not too likely that water main will be done this week. But, early next week we should get accomplished with the water main.

Additional services were completed today and for the most part, all of the services on Farwell are connected to the south Butternut intersection. As the newer main is filled and tested, additional services will get completed in the 500 and 400 blocks, and then followed down the Farwell hill into the 300 and 200 blocks as the main is completed and tested, services will be connected.

For our friends on McBride, Magdeline and Summit. We know you are waiting patiently for your road, but we have some other prep work to get completed. The concrete contractor was in town today prepping for driveway aprons. We anticipate some concrete driveways getting poured either Friday or Saturday. This work is weather dependant.

McBride will have new MG&E gas main starting next Tuesday, not Monday as expected. That work will take 3-4 days on McBride. That MG&E crew will then begin work on Farwell Drive, replacing gas main on Farwell between Butternut and Butternut. The work on Farwell will take 3-4 weeks.
