Summer 2012
The City has awarded a contract for the reconstruction of Waterhouse Street to Tasco Construction Co. This project includes sidewalk reconstruction, roadway paving, and traffic calming improvements.
The City’s contractor will begin to mobilize for the sidewalk and street construction during the week of September 4, 2012. Construction activity will continue for approximately 2 months, with additional finish work to be scheduled for next spring, following a winter construction moratorium. Recently completed utility improvements on Waterhouse Street will minimize the need for future construction on Waterhouse Street once the surface improvements are completed.
Please consult the Documents Tab for final plans and a more detailed project notice. Thank you for your patience during this construction. We hope you enjoy these improvements once they are completed.
