Thayer Street Improvement Construction Update 7.7.14

7/7/2014

1 Comment

 
We apologize for the delay in the opening of Thayer Street this morning.  The work plan was to complete operations by 11:00 A.M.   However, the Contractor encountered some equipment problems during the night which delayed work.  We will be reviewing with the City the current allowable work hours on Thayer Street from 1:00 A.M. to 11:00 A.M.  in an effort to minimize and to mitigate impacts and delays.  We again apologize for any inconvenience the delay may have caused.

Also, we have provided the updated summary of the roadway improvements proposed within the area of the Thayer Street and Brown University.  

Todd Ravenelle, P.E.
Project Manager

Looks like we'll get a spanking new surface on Thayer these early July days and will soon thereafter be ripping it up to accommodate those fancy bump-outs and other semblances vehicular restraint that are in the works. This also to happen on Brook today and well before the Gilbane project is settled in the ground, thus necessitating subsequent tearing up of those two streets as well as Cushing and Meeting. So it goes...
