-
If necessary, comprehensive traffic control plans will be implemented to minimize disruptions to the flow of traffic. There may be planned detours during some phases of construction. Signage will be placed prior to these detours.
-
The contractor will ensure that access to residences, and at least one entrance to businesses, will be maintained throughout construction. Trash and mail 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.

The typical construction noises such as equipment engines, back-up alarms, materials being delivered, diesel generators, air compressors, sawing, etc. should be anticipated.

It is anticipated that the contractor will negotiate with another contractor, VDOT, or a private property owner for a storage area in the project vicinity, and this site will be used for most of the equipment and supplies. The contractor will keep some supplies within the active work zone, in the public right-of way.
-
Construction workers will not be allowed to park their personal vehicles on the public streets. However, work trucks will be allowed to park within the active work zone.

The estimated cost for the project is approximately $1 million.
