Next week, Draper Road will be open as well as the turn lanes on Main Street. Work still needs to be done in the Draper Road area, so there will be flaggers as needed.

Brick and concrete work continues. The sidewalk between Gillie’s and Happy Wok will be heavily impacted with detours as the colored concrete is poured.

Thanks for your patience everyone. We are hitting the home stretch!

This monsoon we are having has put a damper (no pun intended) on construction plans today and tomorrow, as a result, there will be no left turn on to Draper Road from College Avenue until June 14. To allow for concrete pouring, there will be intermittent road closures on College Avenue all of next week. Emergency vehicles will have access at all times.

Also, the turn lanes on Main Street to College Avenue will be closed. Turns can be made from the main travel lane.

The subcontractors did not finish pouring all the concrete, so today’s update will be similar to last week’s.
