Palmisano Construction crews, working closely with the Department of Public Works, began the final walkthroughs on the Read East Boulevard Group C project. After paving operations are wrapped up, crews will finalize the inspections needed to certify this project as complete in March 2021.

The scope of this $3.2M patch, mill, overlay and incidental road repairs project varies by block but includes:

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

Details of this project were first made available at a public pre-construction meeting.
