Update for February 18, 2010

For the week of February 22nd to February 26th the Contractor will be working days. The Contractor plans on continuing work (installing micropiles along with forming and placing rebar for the grade beam) at Wall 6 along with continued subgrade work and possible utility vault and/or drop inlet installations time permitting.

There is no night work planned for this week.

Be aware of the “revised” road opening / closure time changes to the schedule for the month of February.

For those of you planning on visiting the area to camp, hunt, fish, and/or just to enjoy the area, the Salmon River Road may have changed since your last visit, so please be cautious and patient when traveling through the construction area and abide by the signs and temporary traffic signals placed for your safety, and everyone else’s safety also.

Here is a glance at the week of February 22nd through February 26th showing the schedule for road openings / closures:
