As I wrote last week, the water main installation on Farwell was very close to being completed. This work was actually finished yesterday, as the pipe crew finished up the last 40' of water main for the 2010 projects. This marks an important day in getting these projects wrapped up when the completion of thousands of feet of water main is now installed.
The last segment of water main from the 400 block down to the 200 block has already passed pressure testing, flushing, chlorination, and the test sample has already been taken to the state lab for testing. We should have that result in the next day or two.
On Wednesday, there will be some work conducted right away in the morning at the Farwell/Wilder intersection as the tie in water mains are completed. Immediately after the pipe tie in, the road crew will rebuild that intersection.
Residential water services are being completed on Farwell in the 400 and 500 blocks, in those areas that were already tested. That work will continue Wednesday, so Farwell will stay difficult to pass. Also, there may be some isolated water shut downs as they work on specific residential water services.
The road on Farwell Drive has now been rebuilt in the following blocks--800, 700 and 600. They hope to have road base built down the hill on Farwell into the 500 block yet this week and possible they could get into the 400 block.
Still no word on the date that the asphalt contractor will be returning to the Village.
