Nicor Gas to begin work along Longvalley Road
replacing the gas main and services in the area.
The contractor will continue
with water main installation along Longvalley Road this week, with hopes of
installing on the water main to North Branch Road by the end of the week.
During water main installation, the contractor will be excavating along the
entire length of the roadway in lieu of across the roadway. This will pose
additional challenges in traveling along the roadway due to the construction
equipment on-site and excavations on the side of the road. Also, those
residents that live adjacent to where the working is occurring during the day,
access to your driveway will be temporarily restricted as the excavation occurs
in front of your driveway. Residents affected by temporary driveway closures
will be notified by knocking on your doors and asking to move any vehicles from
the driveway or garage prior to excavation occurring. We will do everything
possible to limit the travel delays along Longvalley road, but please use care
and allow a little extra time. The excavations will be filled at the end of each
day, so access to all driveways and the roadway will be restored.
Due to the construction, an
existing ComEd electrical line was hit causing a power-outage in the area. The
incident is still under investigation regarding the reasons for the electrical
line being hit. The good news is no injuries occurred on-site. We apologize for
any inconvenience this interruption in electrical service caused.
Thanks again for all your
patience and understanding as you live within a construction area.
