Harvey St. Construction Update

Another week of construction is completed and another week closing to wrapping up this project. During the past week, crews successfully installed the water main that runs under the Tonquish Creek. Thanks to everyone who helped keep the construction area and secure while this portion of the project was underway.

This coming week, crews will continue with water main installation as well as some storm sewer and sanitary sewer work. Once the water main is installed, it will undergo a series of pressure and bacteriological tests before it can be connected to the current water system. When the new water main is connected to the current water system, there will some scheduled service interruptions for the residents/businesses along Harvey St. City staff will communicate well in advance of this work and will hand deliver notices door to door prior to any interruption in service.

The week following Labor Day will see continued work on the underground utilities, but will also see some additional site prep and cleanup prior to the Fall Fest. It is planned that northbound traffic will be allowed on Harvey St. between Ann Arbor Trail and Penniman during the Fall Festival weekend. This means that traffic can travel northbound from Ann Arbor Trail, enter Fleet St. and park, and the traffic exiting the parking deck can exit back onto Harvey St. continuing north toward Penniman.
