Admiral & King Jehu Sewer Project Update – April 18, 2022

TENTATIVE CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES (KING HEZEKIAH WAY AND KING JEHU WAY)

  • Construction sequencing will generally begin on King Hezekiah Way, followed by King Jehu Way, and then Admiral Way.
  • Locate markings are painted on the ground, indicating where underground utilities are located.
  • Survey staking is ongoing; please do not move or remove any wooden survey stakes.
  • Minor tree trimming activities and clearing will occur as needed.
  • Pre-hammering and trench excavation are ongoing.

PROJECT PHOTO

Below is an example photo of an excavator hammer. The hammer works to break up the rock prior to excavating work. Hammering rock is a common practice in Central Oregon, especially because there is an abundance of rock below the surface.

TRAFFIC CONTROL

Traffic control signs have been staged on King Hezekiah and are ongoing. The closure area (solid red line) and detour (blue dashed line) are shown on the map below. Local access will be provided on King Hezekiah Way and King Solomon Court for homeowners living on those streets. Please proceed with caution when driving in the construction zone.

Road Closed to Thru Traffic / Local Access Only

Local traffic (meaning homeowners who live adjacent to the construction zone) can drive past this sign to access their driveways/homes. Please use extreme caution when driving in the construction zone.
