Preparing for Final Layer of Asphalt Pavement

Work Performed, July 31st to August 11th  
·         Graded base course of gravel prior to paving first layers of asphalt pavement
·         Paved first layer of asphalt pavement
·         Restored concrete driveways
·         Prepared for asphalt driveway restorations
·         Reinstalled mailboxes

Work Anticipated to be Performed, August 14th to August 18th
·         Perform final testing of water main
·         Adjust manholes prior to final paving
·         Perform internal televising of sewers
·         Rough grade and install topsoil along the edge of pavement

With the installation of the first layers of asphalt pavement, hopefully the driving condition are much improved by reducing the amount of dust and providing a smooth driving surface. The asphalt driveways will be restored following the installation of the surface layer of asphalt.

The contractor will be working to performing several miscellaneous tasks prior to paving the final layer of asphalt including all final testing of the underground work performed.

The contractor will be installing and grading topsoil; however, sod will not be installed until mid-September when the growing conditions are typically more favorable.

Hopefully a majority of the construction work, with the exception of sod installation, will be completed in the next 2-3 weeks.

 

Thanks again for all your patience and understanding.
