This is the update for the week of 4/7-4/11 and the schedule for the week of 4/14.

NORTH VIEW AREA - CWB

CONTRACT NO. 1 - BEAR CONTRACTING

No work scheduled until June.

HARTLAND/STEALEY AREA - CWB

CONTRACT NO. 2 - DOSS ENTERPRISES

The new water lines installed on Riverside Drive and Bridge Street were chlorinated and pressure tested this week. Those have passed testing and are ready for customers to be connected. The contractor has started work on Verdun Street and will continue in that area for the next few weeks. Along with that work the contractor will also be completing the road patching on Riverside Drive and Bridge Street.

Fire and EMS service to Verdun Street, Riverside Drive and Bridge Street area should not be affected, these are dead-end streets. Flaggers are setup in the work area to allow local traffic to enter and exit.

ARMORY ROAD - CWB

CONTRACT NO. 3 - D&M CONTRACTING

This week the contractor completed the new main line installation and has tested much of that line. On the sections of the new line that have passed testing, customers are being connected. For the upcoming week, the contractor plans on completing the line testing and service connections.

Fire and EMS service to Armory Road will not be affected.

DOWNTOWN AREA - CWB

CONTRACT NO. 4W - INDEPENDENT CONTRACTING

This week work continued on East Main Street from Davis Weaver Funeral Home to Elm Street and Wood Avenue to Harrison Street. The contractor still needs to install some new line and valves in the intersection of Elm and East Main, but due to the abundance of existing utilities, a vac truck is going to be used for that excavation. The work schedule for next week will be to complete the new line installation from Harrison Street to Buckhannon Pike.

Fire and EMS service to the streets on the South and North sides of East Main Street will be impacted from Harrison Street to Buckhannon Pike. Only one street at a time will be impacted and flaggers will be on site to help with rerouting service.

DOWNTOWN AREA (NEAR WENDY'S) - CSB

CONTRACT NO. 4S - INDEPENDENT CONTRACTING

The contractor is continuing to install the new storm and sewer lines in the area known as “the triangle” between Wendy’s and Subway. Independent Enterprises will continue work in this area next week.

Fire and EMS service in the West End of Pike Street should not be affected, though traffic may be congested at times. The contractor has increased the number of flaggers on site to help with the traffic flow.
