We wanted to let you know about some pile driving activities that are set to occur this Sunday, August 1^st for the bridge work on the Napa River Bridge.  There will be construction activity between First and Third Street happening during the hours of 10:00 am -2:00 pm but the actual noise from the pile driving will only occur for approximately 1 ½ hours within this time period.

The added work hours are necessary to make up time lost due to debris and hard sub-surface conditions encountered in constructing the bridge foundations.  These additional work hours are necessary to meet conditions within the environmental permits for working within the river and also to maintain our schedule of completing the overall project by the end of 2011. 

At this time, we believe the pile driving activity will occur every Sunday through October, but if that should that change, we will certainly let you know.  During the week of Monday through Friday, pile driving hours have been set from 8:00 am to 7:30pm.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and we appreciate your patience with this activity.

Just a reminder about the construction activities and lane closures happening on Soscol Avenue during the weeks of July 5th and July 12th.

Beginning Monday evening, July 5th at 9:00 pm, Soscol Avenue will be closed to ALL traffic for construction activities.  Traffic will be re-routed down First Street and McKinstry Street and Main Street. On Wednesday afternoon, one lane in both southbound and northbound directions will be re-opened.  On Friday, July 9th, all lanes will be open to traffic through the weekend.

Starting Monday July 12th, the contractor will re-route traffic down First St and McKinstry Street for all Northbound traffic.  There will be one lane traveling south available in the south bound side until Wednesday afternoon.  On Wednesday, July 14th by noon, the contractor will then provide one lane in each direction on the south bound side of Soscol until Friday and then re-open all of Soscol by Friday afternoon.

One lane traffic in each direction on Soscol will continue on and off through the end of September.

Also, a Soscol Avenue closure will occur in July.  Beginning Monday, July 12 around 2:30pm, Suulutaaq will be closing the Northbound lanes on Soscol.  The closure is to install a new sanitary sewer line across Soscol Avenue and under the railroad tracks.  The contractor will reopen one Northbound lane on Wednesday, July 14 at noon.  One lane of travel will be maintained in the southbound direction during this time.

The original closure of Soscol Avenue as included in the contract allowed for a five day closure of both directions.  However, with a redesign and the partnering with the US Army Corps of Engineers, the City of Napa and Napa County Flood Control, Suulutaaq is able to reduce this closure to a one direction closure lasting just under two days. 

 

Soscol Avenue has only has one sidewalk, and this is being raised and replaced as a part of the Flood Control Project.   To accomplish this sidewalk raise, starting Monday, Suulutaaq will be establishing pedestrian traffic control on Soscol Avenue.  The pedestrian control will range from Pearl Street to McKinstry Street and will require foot traffic to be routed to side streets.  (Yajome Street and McKinstry Street).

Also, starting Monday, the Contractor will be starting the permanent sewer work at Soscol Avenue, and will be closing individual lanes to accomplish this.  Traffic will continue to flow.  Once the sewer work is completed, the Contractor will commence raising the street in much the same matter as First Street, though traffic will remain open.  This will continue through September and October of this year.
