The restoration work along Longvalley Road is on-going and will be nearly completed by the end of next week. The contractor will leave approximately 2 feet of sod to be installed following the roadway surface paving. The reason for leaving this area along the edge of pavement is so the contractor can match the new asphalt surface once it is paved.

Storm sewer installation along North Branch Road is on-going and is expected to be completed by the end of the week. Once the storm sewer is completed, all underground utility work will be completed and the roadway improvements will begin.
