Update as of 8/16/2019 at 2pm
Saddle Hill –
Landscape restoration along the shoulders was completed on Monday, and the last
driveway in Carriage Ct was paved today.
The signs will be removed early next week. If you have any concerns regarding the work
adjacent to your property, please let us know so that it can be addressed.
Greenbrier –
Installation of the final surface lift of asphalt was completed on Wednesday
and Thursday. Final driveway apron
paving has started, and will continue tomorrow and on Monday, as well as brick
driveway replacement, shouldering, and landscaping. If you have any concerns regarding the work
adjacent to your property, please let us know so that it can be addressed.
Pearson/Crest/Benson
– In preparation for installation of the surface lift of asphalt, the remaining
concrete driveways were completed as well as the asphalt driveway prep. Shoulder stone and surface paving may start
later next week, depending on scheduling of paving crews.
Margate/Hawthorn
– The ditching along Hawthorn is being completed today, and the first lift of
shoulder stone may occur later next week.
Paving will follow, potentially later next week. Hawthorn residents will be notified
individually because they will not have access to their driveways for about 4
hours while the surface is installed.
Forest Lake/Forest
Cove – The contractor plans to complete the milling and paving later in
August.
Reigate Woods
– Baker’s concrete subcontractor has completed the removals, and is pouring the
balance of the curb today. Forms will be
removed and access restored on Monday, 8/19.
Please reach out to RHMG with any concerns. Milling and paving will be scheduled in
early September.
Tantara – The
concrete contractor has saw cut all the curb removals, and will be starting the
removals later next week. If there will
be interruptions to driveway access, at least 24 hours of advance notice will
be provided. Please reach out to RHMG
with any concerns.
Hanlon/Guerin
– There are no updates to report for this project area at this time, but it will
be completed this year.
We understand that everyone is anxious to have
the roads repaired. Completing the work
within a tighter time frame is preferred to an extended construction period with
intermittent work to minimize inconvenience. All the roads included in this
year's contracts will be completed this year.
Thank you for your patience during construction & continuing to keep vehicle speeds down through the construction zones for
everyone’s safety. Please remember to keep windows closed while work is in progress due to dusty conditions.
