New asphalt pavement gets installed and traffic staging is modified

The contractor continued the storm sewer installation along the east side of Nippersink Boulevard, and fine graded the aggregate base on the west side of Nippersink Boulevard. Then they paved the first layer of new asphalt pavement along the west side of Nippersink Boulevard and moved the traffic to this section of the road in a southbound only configuration. Northbound traffic should utilize the posted detour of Grand Avenue to Forest Avenue to Oak Street to access southbound Nippersink Boulevard.

Next week, weather permitting, the contractor plans to continue the proposed storm sewer installation and remove the existing pavement along the east side of Nippersink Boulevard.

Motorists should expect minor delays as the roadway work progresses along Nippersink Boulevard. Please be aware of construction workers and equipment when traveling through the work zone.
