Public Works staff has been working with John Madonna Construction(JMC) to complete as much work as possible and have the following information to share:
Contractor anticipates starting grinding and paving operations on Tuesday, January 2nd and hopes to be completed by Friday, January 5th, but may need Monday, January 8th to complete all paving operations. During this time, because of the colder mornings, construction hours may exceed normal workday hours into the evenings. This may cause delays in the area which extend into the evenings, but is necessary to ensure a good final paving product.
On Tuesday, January 9th, JMC will begin raising utilities to the new pavement elevations, followed by installation of traffic detection loops, and then striping at which time the traffic signal should be operational as long as it doesn’t complicate the traffic patterns with the road restoration work ongoing on Valencia and Soquel. JMC intends to be have all work including clean-up items completed by the 19th.
One corner at Valencia Street, by the dentist’s office, will remain incomplete until PG&E relocates an in-ground vault and light standard. We are anticipating that this work may be completed around March of 2018.
Any questions regarding this update should be directed to Carisa Duran at (831)454-3955
