Thanks again for following
our weekly newsletter. Here's an update on this week's Salem Cable Project
construction, a forecast of what to expect in terms of construction over
the next weeks.
On Congress Street, our
contractors have excavated and installed the duct bank that will house the new S-145
and T-146 transmission cables up to the Derby Street intersection. Once the
finishing touches are applied to the installation, contractors will
continue to excavate and install the duct bank across the intersection and
onto Hawthorne Boulevard. During the course of the duct bank installation,
traffic flow will be maintained in all directions, signage and police
details, as always will be in place to assist motorist and pedestrians.
As mentioned in previous
updates, contractors are working to address an above average groundwater
level at the excavation on Washington Square South. The necessary drainage
systems should be in place by early next to allow our contractors to safely
continue their work. We will continue to keep you informed of the progress
at this work site.
In addition to these two
project work sites, construction inside the Canal Street Station continues.
As this writing, contractors have excavated and installed 75% of the duct
bank that will ultimately connect the transmission cables to the station.
On the community outreach
front, we're looking forward to relaunching our canvassing program in the
coming days. We will be focusing our efforts in the areas around the next
work sites and look forward to sharing the latest information and answering
any questions you may have. Our team looks forward to continuing to work
together to make the construction process as little of a inconvenience as
feasible.
Thank you again for your
interest in the Salem Cable Project.
Sincerely,
|
