Expect ongoing single-lane closures on Altman Road as crews pave the recently widened east side of Altman Road, between Pipeline Road and Lusted Road. This will help with traffic management during upcoming pipeline construction, including installation of new Pleasant Home Water District water mains expected to start mid-November on Lusted Road east of the Altman Road intersection.
Work to clear vegetation on the south side of Dodge Park Boulevard was completed this week ahead of schedule. This recent work will help prepare a work area in the public right-of-way for the Dodge Park Boulevard pipeline construction expected to begin in 2025.
Contractors are continuing to move stockpiled clean soils off the facility site using the allowed haul routes for project construction truck traffic. This truck traffic will be ongoing until the stockpiled clean soils are removed from the site.
Single-lane closures and traffic controls include:
- Altman Road - between Pipeline Road and Lusted Road
- Carpenter Lane - east of Cottrell Road
What to expect:
- Signage and flaggers will direct traffic
- Local and emergency access will be maintained
Note: A temporary full closure of the Altman Rd/Lusted Rd intersection is planned November 19-27. Additional information will be shared as available.
