Residents will be getting letters with more details, but here is some information we have been able to obtain from the city so far...
Capital Projects Division is meeting and managing the contractor
The Pre-Construction meeting was held, 9/15/2021.
How are residents being notified of the start date and procedure?
The City (Capital Projects inspector) will place letters on the doors next week.
The contractor will also provide notifications in advance of work taking place in front of houses as it occurs.
Capital Projects staff can keep the neighborhood informed of any schedule changes or issues if they occur.
Have they been notified of the start date yet?
The start date is set for 9/27/21
City letter is to be placed next week
Will they do one side of the street at a time so people can still get to their homes?
Yes, the contractor plans to do one half of the street at a time in order to minimize disturbances to access
If not where are people to park and how can they access their homes?
Access will be maintained. In some circumstances the resident may need to park a few houses down, but those disturbances would be minimal and only a few days at a time.
Will the gate to St. Vincent’s be opened during this to assist in people accessing their homes?
No. The gate will remain closed. This is to avoid disrupting the hospital traffic by keeping additional traffic and the contractor from trying to use that route, and equally keeping hospital traffic from trying to come in a disturb the contractor’s work.
Are there phases and will people be able to drive to their homes in between? Yes, there will be phases (the contractor is to provide a schedule/phasing plan by 9/22). In general they will do the curb and sidewalk replacements first, then half of the road to the centerline, then the other half of the road. Access is to be available at all times.
Stay in the know with Nextdoor, the neighborhood hub.
