The project will consist of installation of new storm sewer, replacement of a water main, reconstruction of roadways to include curb and gutter along streets that do not currently have curb and gutter and resurfacing of streets in the project area that already have curb and gutter. 

The Village has contracted with John Neri Construction Company to construct the project which is two distinct geographic areas. The west work area is bounded by Orchard Street/Walnut Street/North Street/Catalpa Avenue. The east work area is located on N. Elm Street from Bryn Mawr Avenue to North Street, North Street from Elm Street to Rush Street and Linden Street from Division Street to North Street.

This coming week, the contractor will begin to mobilize materials, equipment, traffic control warning signs and changeable message signs advising the motoring public of the start of construction. During the week of March 20^th, the contractor will grind the roadway trenches for sanitary sewer installation on N.
