New landscaped center median |
Construction has started near Gillespie Field on a center
median that will be landscaped and decorated with stamped concrete. Pedestrian walkway
lights will also be installed on the sidewalk next to the airport.
Workers are making foundations for new street lights that
will be installed along the 1-mile project corridor. Special low-profile lights
will be installed adjacent to the airport because of height restrictions.Grading is being done to create a bioswale – a vegetated depression in the ground–that will capture stormwater runoff on the north side of Prospect near TC Construction Co.
A drip irrigation system is being installed, and
installation of electrical conduit continues.
Crews continue to pour concrete curbs, gutters, sidewalks
and driveways, so please avoid these areas.
Street paving will take place in various areas including: North
half of Prospect between Cuyamaca and Cottonwood; Hacienda Road north of
Prospect; Ian Way at the end of February. Please heed the 25 m.p.h. speed limit in the “cone
zone” construction area.
