Council hears update on Main Street sidewalk repair; contractor may start sooner than expected
Summary
A contractor agreed to a lower quote to repair the sidewalk near a recent water leak; staff will coordinate traffic control and flagging to maintain access for upstairs residents while work proceeds.
The town manager said a concrete contractor accepted a lower quote and could begin Main Street sidewalk repairs sooner than anticipated, possibly within a week. The work will include the area across from a business referred to as Marco where a previous water leak occurred.
Council members discussed coordinating traffic control, including contacting VDOT and a flagging service, and ensuring upstairs residents have a safe route to enter or exit their units while work proceeds. One member expressed concern about how residents would cross the work area; staff said they will work out details to maintain access.
No formal motion was taken; staff will finalize scheduling and coordinate traffic plans with contractors and, as necessary, state agencies or flagging services.
