Wednesday 8/11/2010 Day129

Progress, Progress and more Progress!!

Early today, there will be a water shut off affecting 8 homes in the Wilder, Coleman, and Farwell areas. The shut off should last approximately 4 hours as one of the crews makes a water main tie in to the existing main in front of 201 Farwell. Each of the homes affected were noticed; however, early this morning, we have received a few calls of a few other homes on Farwell in the 500 and 600 blocks who are without water. Staff is trying to find out why this loss of water is taking place.

The water main crew on Farwell is making great progress. Almost another 380' yesterday!! They are now past the curve, working in the 600 block of Farwell.

Also on Farwell, back at the water main start point, the other pipe crew has been making residential service connections. This means that the new main in the first sections were pressure tested, cleaned, and then water samples taken and sent to the state for testing and they received a clear sample.

ROXBURY!!
The asphalt contractor has a few hours available TODAY in their schedule so they will be coming in to the Village to put a binder/1st layer of pavement on Roxbury!!

New Castle/Charing Cross: The next date available for the asphalt contractor to get to the Village will be next Thursday, 8/19. That is the tentative date for paving the binder layer on these two streets.
