Asphalt Delay - August 1st

The contractor has a problem with the asphalt producing equipment at his plant which is delaying the placement of asphalt in the first area of work from Vista Drive to Northwestern Drive.  They are currently planning to be back in operation by Monday, August 4th.

In the Vista Drive to Northwestern area the first layer of asphalt has been placed and has cured.  As such the City is going to open up that stretch of road from Friday through the weekend; however, the section will close again early Monday, August 4, 2014 in the morning (estimated to be around 5:30-6AM).

The road will be closed on Monday, August 4, 2014 until they are done paving with the exception of emergency room traffic to Buena Vista Regional Medical Center which will still have access from the west at the intersection of Vista Drive and West 5th Street.

The section of road from Northwestern to Vestal Street will remain closed over the weekend and through next week to allow for construction and reduce traffic on the milled surface.  Local residents can access their driveways in this section by entering at Barton Street from the south or the north.
