APTOS VILLAGE IMPROVEMENTS PHASE 2B

Project Update 8/6/2020

APTOS VILLAGE BUSINESSES:

All Aptos village businesses are open during construction operations.  Some may have modified operations and/or hours in accordance with current health orders.

SCHEDULE UPDATE

·         STORM DRAIN:  Storm drain revisions due to utility conflicts have been completed.  Installation is expected to begin soon, likely this month, and will take about four weeks to complete.

·         CURB, GUTTER & SIDEWALK, North Side of Soquel:  Curb, gutter & sidewalk work will continue on the north side of Soquel Dr. with curb and gutter being poured this week and sidewalk soon to follow.

·         RAILROAD CROSSING:  The railroad crossing schedule is still being finalized and will be released when it becomes available.

The schedule is subject to change due to weather or other conditions.

TRAFFIC CONTROL

So far, the contractor’s operation has allowed two lanes of traffic to remain open much of the time.  Traffic control consisting of one lane, two-way traffic with flaggers will be required during upcoming construction phases.  Delay times could be up to fifteen minutes.  For the safety of all, please use caution when moving through the construction zone, obey all signage, and please share the road.

GENERAL

The Aptos Times published a great Q & A article about this project in their July 15, 2020 edition.  Please see link to the article on the right.

The public’s patience is appreciated during the construction process and we look forward to project completion in November 2020.  The completion date is subject to change due to weather or other conditions.
