Construction Updates  

December 2024

Our construction contractor will not have crews working along Blue Ridge Road between Tuesday, Dec. 24, and Thursday, Dec. 26, but the team will be on-site on Monday, Dec. 23, and Friday, Dec. 27. They will also be off on New Year's Day. 

To facilitate travel, our contractor will not close any lanes along the corridor between Monday, Dec. 23, and Jan. 6.  

Construction Update:

There is a new traffic pattern at Homewood Banks Drive. Crews have moved all traffic toward Homewood Banks Drive and installed a three-way stop. The new traffic pattern will allow the team to build the new roundabout. 

Crews have also completed a lot of work between Town Ridge Court and Holly Lane. The team is working to realign the roadway in this section to help minimize a sight distance issue. Crews have completed most of the heavy grading work, the new curb and gutter are in place, and we are starting to see the new sidewalk as well. 

Right past the Glen Eden intersection, crews are working on final grading for the installation of the new multi-use path. A crew is also working on the underground utilities between Morningside Drive and Ed Drive.

The City's construction contractor is finishing up the clearing and grubbing process. They are also working on curb and gutter, pavement widening, sidewalks, and curb ramps.

With the heavy rainfall, crews are using temporary seeding to help mitigate runoff and erosion. Storm drain installation is still in progress. Water and sewer installation will begin soon. 

Stay tuned for more updates. Know that our team understands that construction can be disruptive, and we appreciate your patience.

A lot of construction activity is taking place along Blue Ridge Road between Duraleigh Road and Home Wood Banks Drive. Crews installed a three-way stop at Home Woods Bank Drive and continue to work on installing the new stormwater devices there. 

Signal work is taking place at the intersection of Glen Eden Drive and Blue Ridge Road. The signal wires are underground and require excavation. While this work is completed, some lane shifts may also be needed. 

Clearing work is progressing. Most of the tree removal is completed, and now the team is working on stump removal and grading operations. 

Stay tuned for more updates. Know that our team understands that construction can be disruptive, and we appreciate your patience.
