We apologize for the extended delay in providing a Blog Post for the project. Hopefully, the letters provided the Village have kept you informed of the work on-going for the past few weeks.

The work is coming to an end as the construction season is coming to a close. The contractor will continue to perform landscape restorations with sod.  The final layer of asphalt surface is scheduled for the 2^nd or 3^rd week of November. Additional information will be provided to the neighborhood once the dates are confirmed. We are working with the contractor to schedule the work to minimize the inconvenience to the residents. There will be lane closures and parking restrictions during the days of asphalt paving; therefore, a detailed letter will be provided regarding when they will be paving and where residents are able to park and roadways that will be closed during the paving operations.

Thanks again for all your patience and understanding as the project continues and the asphalt surface paving being the final major construction activity.

It would be a benefit to all involved to have those repairs completed prior to sod installation.

Thanks again to all the residents along Phase 2 that were without driveway access as the concrete curb & gutter and asphalt pavement was installed. Also, thanks to all those residents south of Drake Road that did not have access while working between Drake Road and Hudson Road.
