SAN PABLO DAM RD. REPAVING/APPIAN WAY PROJECT NEAR STARBUCKS

1) Dam Rd. - Jan 20, 2009

The remaining items of work are completing some guard rail work, raising utility lids that were covered by the operation, and re-striping the roadway. The contractor is working on all of those remaining items today and weather cooperating, should be done by the end of the month. The striping is obviously the most weather dependant and requires dry pavement.

2) Dam Rd., Tri Lane to El Portal Drive

Wednesday Dec. 10

Info from County engineer:

All prep work for roadbed is done...have now made it to the focus of the
work which is a 1" overlay of "bonded wearing course".
This material glues itself to the existing roadbed and creates a waterproof seal...
they were supposed to work today but had a problem at the mixing plant...
Starting Dec. 11, there will be 4 days ot work to pave all lanes from
Tri Lane to El Portal...they'll start on one side and come back up the other...
a little piece of El Portal Dr. just off Dam Rd., a little piece of County before
Richmond, is complete so you can see what the completed overlay will look like...

After the paving work there will be restriping road and signal work...and buried
utilities will be raised to "grade" i.e. the surface of the road...

Pending weather, et al, the actual completion date is slated for the middle of January..

2) Appian Way tearup done...relaying sewer lines in the vicinity of Starbucks...West
County Wastewater's contractor did work...
