AQUA’s sub contractor, Caddick Utilities, will continue the second phase of the excavation and watermain installation project on Tuesday, September 24, 2019 between the hours of 7AM to 3:00 PM. The following closures will take place during this time to allow for the roadway to be excavated and the new watermain to be safely installed:
Vernon Road will be closed to “thru traffic” from Homestead Road to Washington Lane,
Homestead Road will be closed to “thru traffic” from Cottman Street to York Road,
West Avenue will have temporary road closures from Vernon Road to Newbold Road AND
York Road will have temporary lane closures from West Avenue to Homestead Road
Flaggers & signage will be on site to help control the flow of traffic during this process and residents will continue to have access to their properties. If you do not reside on one of these roads please plan to take another route during these times to avoid disruption to your travels
The excavation and placement of the watermain is now taking place. The installation of the individual water services to customers will follow once the installation of the watermains have been completed. Any road opening will be backfilled daily or safety plated and opened to traffic. The trench will have temporary restoration at the end of each work day.
