This project is necessary to increase the reliability and capacity of the vacuum sewage collection system by replacing the undersized, aging infrastructure with new, higher capacity infrastructure. These upgrades will alleviate current and future vacuum pressure issues.
-
Disruptions to traffic will be minimized, and in most cases, a shared single lane of traffic will be utilized to help navigate around the construction area. The work will be along Brickbat Road, Main Street, and Irvinville Lane. Parking along Brickbat will be temporarily blocked off during installation of the vacuum main and reopened nightly. Flagging operations will be utilized along Main Street to keep road open.
-
The contractor will ensure that access to residences will be maintained throughout construction. We request no on-street parking within the work zone and continued use of side roads for parking. Trash services will not be affected. If necessary, the contractor will move trash containers from within a work zone to an area accessible for pickup, and will be responsible for returning them to each residence.
-
Work will typically take place Monday - Friday during daylight hours (7 a.m. - 5 p.m.). However, there may be times when extended hours, work at night, or weekend work may be necessary.
-
There will be temporary interruptions on Brickbat Road, Main Street, and Irvinville Lane. Your water and sewer service will be temporarily interrupted to install a new lateral. Homeowners will be notified in advance, and interruption time should be less than three hours total.

Construction will affect existing pavement. Any area disturbed by the work (from gutter to gutter) will be restored upon completion of the project.
-
The typical construction noises such as construction crews, equipment engines with back-up alarms, materials being delivered to the site, diesel generators and air compressors, sawing, etc. should be anticipated.

Yes, the contractor will utilize the work zone and obtain another area for storage of materials and equipment. No material or equipment will be stored on homeowner property.
