 Construction Update June 3 - All Timelines Are Weather Dependent
Mapledell
Private utility work (CenterPoint, Xcel, Comcast, etc.) continues. CenterPoint has completed their mainline work and will continue connecting home services to the mainline for the next 2-3 weeks. These utilities are being relocated because they are either in the way of the city’s proposed infrastructure or because their maintenance cycles are in alignment with the project. This work will be primarily within the street right of way, however, there may be some work within side yard and backyard easements.
The city’s contractor for this project, Northwest Asphalt, is hoping to begin as soon as the private utility work is completed. While the contractor’s exact start date is still unknown, they will likely begin in early June.
Heritage/Medicine Lake Highlands
Private utility work continues. While the contractor's exact start day is still unknown, they will likely begin in early June.
Westridge Estates/Forster Preserve
Private utility work continues. The contractor has started clearing trees in Phase 3A (Larch Lane and west portion of Old Rockford Road) and will continue with pavement and curb removals beginning on June 3. Curb replacement is scheduled to begin on June 6. New pavement is tentatively scheduled to begin on June 14.
Nathan Lane, Schmidt Lake Road, 45th Avenue, Hwy 169 Service Drive
The contractor is primarily working on the Highway 169 Service Drive and 45th Avenue sections. Driveway replacements are complete.
The contractor has removed (reclaimed) the asphalt on 45th Ave and Hwy 169 Service Drive and is working on grading/shaping the gravel for new pavement. Please expect longer delays as the gravel (ground up asphalt) will not be drivable until the contractor compacts it. Weather dependent, construction of new pavement is expected to begin June 3. Longer delays should be anticipated during the paving operations next week.
The city’s construction inspector, Moe Omer, will be onsite regularly during construction and is available to answer questions. His contact information is momer@plymouthmn.gov or (763) 509-5529.
