Traffic Control During Construction

Lane Closures:

There will be one lane of traffic in each direction maintained throughout the project. However, there may be periodic short-term lane closures and flagging operations.

When lane closures are required, the contractor will utilize:

• Portable traffic control signs;
• Trained flaggers; and,
• Traffic Cones.

No lane closures will occur between the hours of 7:00 and 9:00 a.m. or between 4:00 and 7:00 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Construction activities are generally scheduled Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. - 6 p.m., with some Saturday work as needed. The contractor may need to work some nights. Notice will be given to residents in advance, if night work is needed.

In the event of unplanned extended work hours, crews will notify properties affected by that work.  

Side Streets: 

Residents will have access to side streets at all times during construction. When crews are working on side streets, there may be a need to close a lane while performing paving operations. This will be completed with the help of trained flaggers and proper signage.

There will be times when a side street will need to cross over the old or new asphalt before turning left or right onto Poole Road. During these times, the contractor will use road-closed signs and construction barrels to help direct traffic through the work zone.

Driveways:

When crews do driveway work, the contractor will coordinate with residents in advance to ensure residents have access to their property and a place to park.

Work Zone Safety:

Drivers should always be alert and tentative when entering a construction zone.

Pay close attention to all signs and look out for flaggers along the corridor.

We understand that construction is an inconvenience, and we appreciate your patience.
