City of New Orleans contractor Beverly Construction, LLC has transitioned into the second phase of the Lower Ninth Ward Northeast Group A (the eastern area bounded by North Claiborne Avenue, Jackson Barracks, Florida Avenue and Caffin Avenue). When asphalt placement is completed this month, the project will be 55 percent complete.
The $3.5M Lower Ninth Ward Northeast Group A project is the second of thirteen planned FEMA-funded construction project that will help improve road conditions in the Lower Ninth Ward neighborhood. The project was designed by Neel - Schaffer, Inc.
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; and
- Installing Americans with Disabilities Act-compliant curb ramps at appropriate intersections.
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.
