Cottonwood Drive work continues to progress in Georgetown Township.
 Construction crews have been busy out on Cottonwood Drive the past several days, starting back up in full force on the project this past Monday.
Here’s the latest project update:
- The 84-inch drain pipe being worked on at Village Lane was completed mid week.
- Additional concrete curb and gutter installations are expected to begin the week of Monday, Oct. 8.
- A lane closure on the right lane of westbound Baldwin Street as you approach Cottonwood will begin Monday, Oct. 8, as crews work on curb and gutter, and drainage installation on the northwest corner of the Cottonwood Drive/Baldwin Street intersection. The lane closure is expected to last through Friday, Oct. 12.
- Contractors will be grading the western side of Cottonwood, with a tentative goal of paving a base course of asphalt on that side of the road the week of Oct. 15.
- Contractors continue to work on water main and water service tie-ins along Cottonwood ahead of anticipated paving on the west side of the road.

James St. Resurfacing Project
We also have a new date for the planned resurfacing of James Street from U.S. 31 to Chicago Drive.
According to the contractor's updated schedule, the project will now take place April 22, 2019, and wrap up June 14, 2019.
The project was originally scheduled to begin Aug. 27.
Although no actual work had commenced on the James Street project before the labor impasse last month, the traffic control signage had already been delivered to the site. This signage will be collected for the season, and then brought back out in the spring at no additional cost to the project.
