Utility work has continued along the avenue during break, and will continue through the next week. Here are details:
This week, the contractor is working to install low pressure gas mains from Roumfort Road to Gowen Avenue. This work will result in sidewalk closures along the east side of the avenue as well as lane shifts while crossing Roumfort Road.
The contractor will continue to work Saturday (12/29) from 7am to 3:30 pm. In observance of the New Year's Holiday, work will not resume until Wednesday 1/2/08. Crews will again work from Wednesday to Friday (1/5) from 7am to 5pm and Saturday (1/6) 7am to 3:30pm. Crews will continue the sewer line installation behind the construction barrier from the Cresheim Creek Bridge to Woodbrook Lane on the east side of Germantown Avenue. Crews will continue the installation of the water main on the west side of the avenue at the intersection of Gowen Ave. The contractor will continue the water main installation on the east side of the avenue from Nippon Street to Allens Lane in front of campus. This work will result in shoulder and sidewalk closures along with lane shifts while maintaining two lanes open to traffic. Construction crews will continue to work along the Cresheim Valley Creek in preparation of the bridge rehabilitation. This work will not affect pedestrian or vehicular traffic.
One travel lane will remain open in each direction on Germantown Avenue during construction, but motorists will encounter traffic pattern shifts. Parking along Germantown Avenue will be restricted in areas where crews are working.
