South Norfolk Pump Stations & Sanitary Sewer Replacement Project

Body

Brainbridge Boulevard Construction Update – November 2023

 

Bainbridge Boulevard Pipeline Work:

As part of our projectmap and following initial work on the shoulder of Bainbridge Boulevard to the west of Southgate Plaza in October (per Construction Notice #29), our contractor will conduct excavation and replacement of existing sanitary sewer pipeline on Bainbridge Boulevard itself starting within the next week. Construction work is expected to occur Monday – Friday between the hours of 7 AM – 5 PM. The expected pipeline work period is two to three months.

As a result of the work on Bainbridge, the northbound side of Bainbridge Boulevard will be restricted to one lane between the west entrance to Southgate Plaza near Swain Avenue and Chapin Road to the south. Please refer to the image to the right to familiarize yourself with the area restricted. Residents on Bainbridge Boulevard and Swain Avenue will be able to access their homes via their normal routes.

While the contractors work, you may hear noises such as drilling, engines, backup alarms, diesel generators and motors. Vibration monitors will be located onsite and near the construction area to ensure limited disruption to you in your residence. Your water and sewer service will not be disrupted.

Dust control measures such as paving, frequent road cleaning and/or application of water will be enacted to reduce dust from becoming airborne. After construction, roadways and rights-of-way will be restored to their pre-construction structure and materials.

While our project team works diligently to minimize impacts, you may notice increased noise and traffic, along with the people and heavy equipment (with back-up safety alarms) associated with construction. Please take care when traveling around the construction area and for your safety, do not enter the site. Due to the nature of construction, work is weather and situation dependent, and dates are subject to change.
