Engineer's update: Providence Road delay pushes crosswalk and traffic projects
Summary
Engineer Mr. Matson reported Pico delayed breaking ground on Providence Road, delaying posting of a detour and the borough's crosswalk/RRFB installation near Holly House; Lemon & Jefferson traffic-calming work is expected to begin this month as weather allows, and ADA ramps were completed in December.
Borough engineer Mr. Matson told council that contractor Pico delayed the scheduled March 9 start for Providence Road work and the borough has not yet received an updated detour plan. Because the Pico work is a predecessor to the borough’s crosswalk and RRFB installation at Holly House, the project is temporarily on hold.
"They had some delays, so I don't have their detour plan has not yet been posted," Matson said. He added that he has emailed the contractor for an updated timetable and will keep the borough and residents informed.
Matson also said Lemon and Jefferson traffic-calming improvements are coordinated with the contractor and county CDBG officials and are expected to begin this month weather permitting; ADA ramps were completed at the end of December and a second payment request was received to close out that project.
