The Department of Public Works’ construction contractor, Fleming Construction Co., LLC is currently working on a short list of recommended changes as a result of the inspection that was conducted by the Department of Public Works, Sewerage and Water Board and Burk-Kleinpeter. These changes and adjustments are expected to be completed by February 2019.

 The $4.8M Lower Ninth Ward Northwest Group A project began in November 2017 and the scope of work for this project includes:

• Repaving the asphalt roadway from curb-to-curb;
• Patching the roadway with asphalt;
• Repairing damaged sidewalks and driveway aprons;
• Installing Americans with Disabilities Act-compliant curb ramps at appropriate intersections; and 
• Replacing/repairing damaged underground water, sewer and/or drainage lines.

The City hosted a pre-construction public meeting to discuss anticipated impacts prior to the start of construction. View a copy of the presentation here. To be added to the project contact list, and to track our progress, visit RoadWork.nola.gov.
