The main message in this report is similar to the previous. Work continues to progress on the west end of the project between Beach Buggy Lane and Hogan Road. The contractor will continue to focus on the installation of the edge drain and road base until it is completed. They will also return to removing additional curb and gutter in the coming days in order to prepare the area for the concrete contractor to return. In addition to the underground work, subcontractors will continue to work on general landscape grading from Beach Buggy Lane to N. Bridge Street. W. Rolston Road between Beach Buggy Lane and N. Bridge Street will remain mostly open, with the possibility of slight delays as motorists make their way around the landscaping contractors. W. Rolston Road between Beach Buggy Lane and Hogan Road will continue to be limited to one lane, with occasional full closures while trucks are loading and unloading. Work zones require extra caution, and we ask for your support in keeping safety a top priority. Please remember to: · Slow down and stay alert when approaching and traveling through construction areas. · Follow posted signs and directions from workers. · Plan ahead for potential delays and seek alternative routes when necessary. We appreciate your patience and cooperation as we work to improve W. Rolston Road. Working together we can create a safer and more efficient roadway while minimizing disruptions. 

The asphalt contractor will be returning to the project tomorrow to address some asphalt quality issues that have been identified throughout the project. This work will be focused on several small areas, so there should be minimal travel disruptions. We anticipate that one lane of travel will remain open in the work areas. Despite the open lane, we recommend motorists avoid the work zone if possible. This work should be completed within a couple of days. We are also receiving a lot of calls regarding landscape repairs, or the lack thereof. The contractor will continue to move through the neighborhood until all landscape repairs have been completed. If you believe the landscapers have completed your street, but not your property, contact us so that we can make sure you haven’t been overlooked. If you have any concerns specific to your address, please contact the city to make sure your concerns are scheduled to be addressed.

It is important that we collect this contact information because many households no longer utilize traditional land-based telephone lines. The system is intended to be used for emergency alerts, as well as non-emergency incidents that may have significant impacts to residents. Emergency Alerts could be related to specific hazards that require some kind of action be taken such as evacuation, shelter in place, boil water orders, etc. Non-emergency alerts could include significant transportation problems with prolonged impacts or significant ongoing police or fire activity. This list is not meant to be all inclusive, and demonstrates that this system will not be used for routine information. In addition to receiving information on your wireless device, you may also receive notification on your land telephone line (if you have one) depending on the type of incident or event. Please provide your address and preferred method(s) of contact. Adding your address will allow tailoring so you do not receive alerts that don’t pertain to your geographical area. These alerts are provided free of charge, however standard text messaging rates and other charges may apply. If you wish to subscribe to SMS text messages only, text your zip code to 38276. There is also a mobile app available. If you would like to sign up for notifications or add the weather option: https://portal.civicplus.com/MI-Linden/dashboard
