Progress Update
All exposed aggregate concrete has been installed south of Hazel Street. The contractor is starting removals of the primary sidewalk south of Bowers Street, in front of the 555 building, and will continue removals between Bowers Street and Hazel Street along the east side of South Old Woodward Avenue. Due to the nature of this work, the sidewalk will be closed for up to three days in each location to complete the placement of new concrete.
The contractor has started to cut grade for the South Old Woodward Avenue road surface north of Hazel Street. By early next week, the contractor plans to begin placing the stone base for the new concrete road. The electrician is working on placing new conduit on the west side of South Old Woodward Avenue at Frank Street, heading south.
Additionally, the contractor will begin replacing three fire hydrants along the west side of South Old Woodward Avenue. Two water shutdowns will be necessary to complete this work. Select businesses between Haynes Street and Lincoln Street will be impacted by the shutdowns later this week. The City is currently working to contact the affected businesses directly regarding each shutdown.
Consumers Energy continues to have crews moving a gas main between George Street and Lincoln Street.
