Watch your driving around the neighborhood...lots of work being done
Update on the Glenwood and Moreland Re-Alignment Project:
- The current westbound lane closure of Glenwood Avenue from the westerly driveway of Branan Towers to Moreland Ave will remain in place through April 9, 2021, as weather permits and with no unforeseen construction challenges.
The detour route for the Glenwood Avenue westbound closure is as follows:
Turn left onto Brownwood Avenue SE
Turn right onto Portland Avenue SE
Turn right onto Moreland Avenue SE to Glenwood Avenue SE.
- Current plans call for “Businesses Open” signs (see attached sample) to be installed this week, possibly tomorrow (Thursday, February 25), near your businesses on Glenwood Avenue.
The closure is needed to accommodate safe construction activities, as well as large truck and equipment staging in the area.
Work planned during the closure includes:
- IN FRONT OF THE TIRE SHOP
Driveway demolition, grading, concrete pouring and curing
Catch basin construction
Sidewalk demolition, grading, concrete pouring and curing
IN FRONT OF THREE (3) BUSINESSES ON GLENWOOD AVENUE BETWEEN THE TIRE SHOP AND BRANAN TOWERS
Driveway demolition, grading, concrete pouring and curing
Removal of existing driveway curb and installation of new curb
Sidewalk demolition, grading, concrete pouring and curing
[NOTE: Currently, work requiring the sidewalk closure in front of the three (3) Glenwood Avenue businesses is scheduled to take place between March 15-26, 2021, weather permitting and with no unforeseen construction challenges. Compensation is not provided for disruptive activities associated with public-funded infrastructure improvements.]
