Hard Rock Construction Co., LLC crews began installing an asphalt binder course (between the foundation and upper layer) on East Park, Central Park and General Diaz streets this month, as well as placing new concrete curb and gutter bottoms. Excavations began on the roadway patches on Homedale and Vicksburg streets, West End Boulevard and Ada Place, along with the asphalt failures on South Park Place. Roadway milling is being scheduled.

The project, which began in February 2020, includes $7M worth of infrastructure improvements and affects nearly two dozen streets in the area. In addition to repairing and replacing damaged roadways and patching concrete, crews will repair sidewalks, driveway aprons and curbs on various streets throughout the project area. Work is scheduled to be complete in summer 2021, weather permitting.
