Project Updates - June 30

CLARKSBURG WATER AND SEWER PROJECT UPDATES

Weekly update from Bobby Tenney (Senior Project Representative) on the Clarksburg Water Board (CWB) and Clarksburg Sanitary Board (CSB) Projects:

This is the update for the week of 6/23– 6/27 and the schedule for the week of 6/30.

NORTH VIEW AREA - CWB

CONTRACT NO. 1 - BEAR CONTRACTING

The contractor continued laying the new water line on 14th Street to George Avenue to the north and towards Alpha Avenue to the south. The new water line on West Virginia Avenue that was to be tied into the existing line on 13th Street has been delayed due to a leaking valve on the existing main line. The new line on 13th Street is going to be extended to include replacing that valve. Sections of 14th Street will be closed to traffic Monday-Friday during working hours, and the intersection of 13th Street and West Virginia Avenue may see some delays Monday-Friday also. The contractor plans to continue with the new line on 14th Street to Alpha Avenue and 14th Street to Franklin Avenue over the next few weeks. NO PARKING signs will be placed in the sections where the contractor is planning to work; please find alternate parking during working hours. If you need access to your driveway, please speak to the contractor on-site.

Fire and EMS access to 14th Street will be restricted from West Virginia Avenue to Goff Avenue and from West Virginia Avenue to Alpha Avenue. No flaggers are in place on this project.

CONTRACT NO. 2 - DOSS ENTERPRISES

The contractor continued laying a new 6” water line on Magnolia Avenue towards Reynolds Street and started making customer service connections on Verdun Street and South Alexander Avenue. This coming week, the contractor will be making asphalt trench repairs on Verdun Street, South Alexander Avenue, Hartland Avenue, and Magnolia Avenue, and also saw cutting on Magnolia Avenue between Traction Street and Reynold Street. NO PARKING signs will be placed in the areas of the paving work a day ahead of starting on that section. Please find alternate parking during the posted work hours. If your vehicle is parked in the work zone, it will be towed to a safe location if you cannot be located. If you need access to your driveway, please speak to the contractor onsite.
