Background and Analysis:
Lakeside Industries will pave the Boulevard Road and Morse-Merryman Road Roundabout project on Saturday, September 22, and Sunday, September 23. We will need to close the intersection to complete the paving. Weekend paving minimizes the impact on the community by avoiding workweek commuter traffic.
Vehicle access: Residents living within the work area will be restricted from driving their cars into the work zone. We are working with impacted residents to identify staging areas for cars and provide assistance as needed.
Special Needs: We are contacting residents within the work zone to identify any special needs, such as medical concerns that may require customized solutions.
Bicycles and pedestrians: Flaggers will guide bicycles and pedestrians safely through the work area.
Emergency vehicles: All emergency vehicles will have access at all times.
Ball Field Access: Working with Parks, we informed leagues with scheduled events to access LBA from the east and access Washington Middle School from Cain Rd.
Intercity Transit: IT will re-route their buses to avoid the work area on paving days.
