Construction Update - 10/28/2022

Halloween

• Please use caution if you plan to walk through the construction area, as there are trip and fall hazards and many of the street lights are not yet powered back on. Have a fun and safe Halloween.

Phase 2

• The remaining concrete work schedule is to be determined.
• Irrigation repairs will continue.

Phase 3 – W 42nd Street

• The watermain replacement work and large diameter storm sewer installation are on hold again due to Xcel Energy. The contractor will install sump drain pipe while waiting for Xcel Energy to coordinate holding of utility poles.
• Crews have also begun water service replacements and will be taking homes off the temporary watermain when the water service replacements are complete. The contractor will need to access the basement of the home to finalize the transition to the permanent water line.
• A daytime closure of W 42nd St will occur while large machines are installing the underground utilities. Please check your front door daily for time sensitive notifications related to driveway access. W 42nd St will reopen after work has concluded each day.

Phase 3 – Grimes Ave between W 42nd St & Morningside Rd AND Phase 4 – Crocker Avenue

• Driveway aprons and concrete driveway replacements are nearing completion.
• The first asphalt layer is tentatively scheduled to be paved on 11/2.

Phase 5 – Morningside Road and Grimes Avenue south of Morningside Rd – Postponed until 2023

• Based on the Xcel Energy delays on West 42nd Street, Phase 5 will be postponed until spring 2023.
