We are starting to see the Streetscape Project take shape. The curb was poured this week on
construction on the bridge. Please be mindful and watch your speeds in that area. It is unsure what day next week when the work will occur at the bridge, but when it does, the bridge will be closed. The public will be notified prior to the work beginning. Champagne-Marx currently does not plan to close Mill Street when the curb is installed next week.
Champagne-Marx apologizes for the road closures this week but believed it was necessary to expedite the curb installation and lining of the sewers. There was signage indicating the road closures, however, barricades were kept open due to the large amount of construction trucks entering and leaving the site for the tedious work required installing the curbs. They understand this caused confusion but they utilized their work force to keep construction moving rather than stationing them to keep the construction zone closed.
As always, please be safe and mindful of your surroundings in the construction zone. If you have questions please free to emailstreetscape2015@cityoffenton.org.
