Construction Schedule
The construction schedule for the River Road and Roberts Road roundabout has been modified as a result of several factors including utility relocation delays and a soil stabilization subcontractor conflict. The general construction staging plan will remain the same; a pre-stage will occur this year in order to complete part of stage one with the remaining stage one work to begin next spring.
For the pre-stage work this year, the plan is to close River Road (Roberts Road will remain open) beginning Monday, Aug. 11th, so the contractor can complete the majority of the soil stabilization work. This closure is expected to last until late November/early December of this year.
In late November/early December, it's planned for crews to install temporary pavement for River Road and temporary signals at the intersection so we can open the roadway and intersection for the winter.
In spring of 2015, the contractor will be back in to build the roundabout. River Road will again be closed to traffic so construction of stages one and two can be completed; Roberts Road will remain open to traffic. For stage three, both River and Roberts will be closed for about 20 days to complete the final elements of the roundabout.
The detour routes for all stages remain the same and can be found on the Detours page of the project website.
The construction staging information can be found on the Schedule page of the website.
