Lane closures are planned for the asphalt preservation project underway in the Prairie Ridge and Stone Branch subdivisions, as well as a large number of streets in the Stonewall Drive area between Washington Boulevard and Silver Lake Road.
The closures will occur between the hours of 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. beginning Aug. 31 and continue through the end of September, when the project is expected to be complete.
The following maps indicate closure days per area:
The $1.1 million project is funded through the 2020 Half-cent Capital Improvement Project (CIP) sales tax and involves the application of High Density Mineral Bond (HA5) to the surface of the affected streets, as well as some full-depth asphalt patching, primarily in the Stonewall Drive area. (The project is not the same as the large-scale project that caused multiple issues for motorists last summer. This project does not include a chip seal, which created issues with the previous project.)
Residents in the affected areas will receive a flyer showing closures, as the application requires closures on two back-to-back days to complete each section. These sections will be inaccessible between the hours of 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. on those days. Please do not park within 50 feet of these areas on days scheduled for HA5 application. (Vehicles parked in the affected areas will be towed.)
Affected areas include:
- Stonewall Drive – between Silver Lake Road and Washington Blvd./U.S. Highway 75, including side streets adjacent to Stonewall Drive in the Park Place and Deerfield subdivisions, as well as the Stonebridge subdivision.
- Nova Avenue – between Wayside and Price Road
- Hill Drive – between Silver Lake Road and Price Road
- Prairie Ridge subdivision
- Stone Branch subdivision
- Southwest Jennings Avenue – between Adams Boulevard and 14th Street
The project is scheduled to conclude by Sept. 29. However, the process is weather-dependent, so the schedule could shift due to weather conditions. If the contractor is unable to complete a scheduled section due to rain, the work will be moved to the end of the line to keep the other sections on schedule due to the extensive notification process.
