Construction on the $4.4M Filmore South Group A project continues to progress ahead of schedule. The project, which was designed by Volkert Inc. and is being constructed by Hard Rock Construction LLC, has reached approximately 60% completion.
Roadwork on the project is currently focused on the following streets: Miles, King, Moore, Overton, Mandolin, Hamburg and Cartier. There is also significant work on water and sewer lines in concert with the Sewerage & Water Board of New Orleans. The scope of work for the project as a whole varies by block but includes the following types of work:
- Patch Mill/Overlay: Repaving the asphalt roadway from curb to curb and repair damaged sidewalks;
- Patch Concrete: Removing damaged portions of the concrete roadway and replace it with new smooth concrete pavement;
- Incidental Road Repairs: Removing damaged portions of the asphalt roadway and replace it with new smooth pavement; and
- Non-Paving Incidentals: Repairing damaged sidewalks, driveway aprons and curbs within the public right-of-way.
The City of New Orleans hosted a pre-construction community meeting in August 2019 to discuss anticipated impacts to the community. View a copy of the presentation here. To be added to the project contact list and track our progress, visit roadwork.nola.gov.
