Construction Update � Third Street Schedule Changes � This Friday and Saturday

napafloodcontrol — 2010-11-25T09:23:59-08:00

The rainy weather conditions last Saturday and the fact that the grade was saturated on Monday caused Suulutaaq to lose two days of work. In order to meet the December 18th deadline which they are determined to do, Suulutaaq needs to make up these lost days. Therefore they will be working on Third Street this Friday and Saturday from 7 am - 5 pm. If the rain starts again on Saturday, the contractor will stop work and may resume again on Sunday. Again, this is all in an effort to meet the Dec. 18th deadline for reopening Third Street..

We apologize for this inconvenience but appreciate your understanding. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Also, the city and Suulutaaq have met to discuss road work on Soscol Avenue. Both parties agreed that Soscol Avenue will need to be fully closed on Monday, November 29th from 7am-5 pm. This is work associated with the water line relocation and the full closure of Soscol Avenue is required.

The same detour routes from the previous road closure will be in place. We expect this to be the last full day of closure on Soscol Avenue for the foreseeable future.
