PHASE TWO OF THE PENN AVENUE AND EASTWOOD DRIVE IMPROVEMENT PROJECT  IN PRESCOTT IS UNDERWAY.

CREWS HAVE FINISHED INSTALLING A TEMPORARY WATER FLY-LINE WITHIN THE PHASE 2 EXTENTS THAT WILL ENSURE CONTINUOUS WATER UTILITY SERVICE. THE INSTALLATION OF THE NEW SEWER MAIN AND MANHOLES WILL RESUME ALONG EASTWOOD DRIVE. 

ADDITIONAL IMPROVEMENTS INCLUDE THE CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW REGIONAL STORMWATER DETENTION BASIN, AS WELL AS NEW CURB, GUTTER, ASPHALT PAVEMENT AND TRAILHEAD IMPROVEMENTS ALONG THE PROJECT CORRIDOR.

EASTWOOD DRIVE WILL BE CLOSED TO THROUGH TRAFFIC BETWEEN HILLCREST DRIVE AND DEVEREAUX DRIVE THROUGH FRIDAY AS CREWS WORK FROM 7:00 A.M. TO 6:00 P.M. EACH DAY.  

PEDESTRIANS ARE ASKED NOT TO ENTER THE SITE OF THE NEW REGIONAL STORMWATER DETENTION BASIN. CONSTRUCTION WILL PRODUCE LOUD NOISE AND HEAVY EQUIPMENT ACCESSING THE SITE.

THE PROJECT IS SCHEDULED FOR COMPLETION THIS FALL.
