Additional Notes:
Traffic: The construction area is closed to through-traffic and is open to local-traffic only. A police presence will be in place periodically on Gorton Avenue and fines may be issued to traffic violators.
Garbage/Recycling: Residents are asked to label their garbage and recycling bins by writing their house number on a piece of tape and attaching it to their bins. Place the bins near the street on pick-up days and the contractor will move them as needed for pick-up.
Punch List: If there are any items that you believe need to be addressed prior to the completion of the project, please contact Spencer Johnson at the contact information provided.
Additional updates will be provided as the construction progresses.
Thank you for your continual patience and understanding throughout the process of improving your streets and utilities!
