Construction of the Oak Harbor Street Improvement Project is begining this week. The first work to be done on site is relocation of utility poles. Potelco, an affiliate company to Puget Sound Energy will be installing several new utility poles between now and March 10. Please watch for construction zones and temporary traffic control when passing through the project area.
We anticipate that G & G Excavation, Inc., the general contractor, will mobilize to the site early next week and begin work. Reconstructing the road will require that lanes and sometimes the entire street be temporarily closed. There will often be only a single lane open with vehicle traffic alternating direction in the remaining lane. Expect frequent delays and changes to lanes and the road surface during construction. It is recommended that through traffic avoid Oak Harbor Street north of Whidbey Avenue while work is in progress. The recommended alternate routes are Heller and Goldie streets.
Local access will be maintained during construction as will access by emergency vehicles.
This blog will be updated regularly during the construction period.
