Wednesday, Day 136

Here is a quick summary for you from today:

Laurel, Charing Cross and New Castle:
Received first layer (Binder) of asphalt today. Wow, this gives that area a new look and really shows the progress toward completion in these streets!!. The surface layer will likely not happen for a couple weeks because the asphalt contractor has some work to get completed around schools and the timing is such that they need to complete that work in the next couple weeks.

The new water main was installed into a tricky private driveway in the 800 block of Farwell. There has been much planning for this area because of the complexity. Late in the afternoon, all was looking good with this connection and it feels good to finally have that difficult work behind us.

Farwell: There was no water main installed today as both pipe crews needed to complete other tasks (the private drive mentioned above and a sanitary repair and residential water service that each required MG&E to support a pole because of the proximity of the excavation to those poles.

There was road built on other areas of Farwell, including the Farwell and Summit Road intersection.

As you can see from the work listed above, there was ALOT of action in the Village today. Getting around may have been a bit difficult at time due to the numerous work zones so we extend our apologies for those inconveniences.
