          Good afternoon,

Following is an update on the above-referenced project as of this afternoon, August 10, 2017.  Please post an update on the website as soon as possible:

Traffic Circle at the Intersection of SW 168/82

: On Wed., August 9^th contractor completed removal of the traffic signal box and all underground wiring.  In addition, necessary equipment and materials were delivered to the site commencement of construction work.  Subsequently, contractors were out this morning despite the rain and have commenced construction of the traffic circle (See pictures here).  Please note that temporary stop signs have been placed at the corner of SW 82^nd Ave and SW 165^th Terrace to provide for safe access to this intersection during the duration of this project.  Signs have been placed to indicate detours.  There will be no access to vehicular, pedestrian or bicycle traffic at this intersection through the duration of this construction project.

Please pay close attention to travel lane closures and detours which you can find on the project MOT. You are also requested to exercise caution when workers and heavy equipment are in operation. Obey all posted signs and speed limits and allow extra time to reach your destination. 

Thank you,

 

I will continue to keep you up to date.
