Area 3 Construction ongoing

Morton Street continues to be shut down from Rt. 31 west to Jefferson to thru traffic.  Local Traffic will only be able to access Morton Street from Jefferson.  This closure will be for the duration of the project which is anticipated to be completed on August 10th.  Please follow the detour routes and proceed with caution in the construction zone. 

The week of 5/29, storm sewer began in the cemetery.  The work is progressing to the west and is close to reaching the intersection of Morton Street & Rt. 31.  New storm sewer and water main will need to be installed on Rt 31/Batavia Avenue, requiring lane closures on Rt 31.  It is anticipated that Lane closure will occur on Rt. 31 starting week of June 11, reducing north and south to one lane in each direction.  Residents and motorists are advised to expect delays as they travel through the lane closures on Rt 31/Batavia Avenue.  For more information on the project go the project website: http://cityofbatavia.net/679/Area-3

2018 Ward 1 Storm Sewer Reconstruction – Giese Road \

The contractor, Performance Construction, has started replacing watermain portion of the work. Last week, the contractor performed mostly set-up work such as delivery of equipment, sawcutting pavement, and layout. Next week, pavement removal and Watermain replacement will continue on Giese Road.  Once the watermain replacement is completed, the main portion of storm sewer construction is expected to take place after NICOR and AT&T have relocated all of their conflicting utilities.
 
No on-street parking will be allowed in the construction area but Giese Road will remain open for traffic. Construction equipment staged on the street will be barricaded off every night. In addition, there is potential that some material will be staged in the parkway of the north side of Giese Road.  Residents and motorists are advised to expect delays on Giese road due to construction activities.
