Road Construction Update

Edgerton Road Reconstruction Project

This project is being completed in two-phases:

Phase 1: 2007 - West 130^th Street to Bennett Road and Ridge Road to State Road.

Phase 2: 2008 - State Road east to the Broadview Heights line.

Phase 1 update:

Phase I of the Edgerton Road Reconstruction Project was substantially complete prior to the snow flakes arriving. There are a few items that remain to be completed on the sections of Edgerton Road from West 130^th Street to Bennett and from Ridge to State roads. These remaining items consist mainly of lineal grading and re-defining of storm water ditching as well as the restoration of the grass at the ditch and the driveway aprons that were replaced as a part of the project.

Phase 2 update:

Phase 2 of this project is scheduled to begin the week of May 12^th, 2008. Beginning at State Road and proceeding East to the Broadview Heights border. The road reconstruction process will be the same as was completed in Phase I of this project as well as on both Wallings Road and Drake Road. It will consist of the following procedures: 

1.    Temporary realignment/relocation of Mail Boxes. (Some mail boxes may not be affected).

2.    Excavation of some driveway aprons, grinding of others. (You will have limited access at certain times due to construction going on at that time).

3.    Excavation and widening of berm area.

4.    Single Pass Cold in-place recycling, (once complete, there will be a curing time delay).

5.    Perform any full-depth repairs and chip and seal.

6.    Improvements to ditch/drainage of storm water as directed.

7.    Installation of NEW asphalt leveling course.

8.    Installation of new Driveway Aprons and culvert pipes, (not all properties may be affected).

9.    Installation of NEW asphalt surface course and permanent striping.

10.  Restoration of all disturbed areas and re-installation of NEW Mail Boxes, (not all mail boxes are affected).

Recycling of the existing roadway pavement at an average depth of six-inches (6”) - during this process, additives are infused into the recycled existing material and reinstalled and compacted. This ‘cold’ in-place recycling of the existing asphalt will stabilize the roadway base. Once the newly installed recycled base is complete, the intermediate layer of asphalt will be installed and the storm water drainage improvements will be executed as well as the required driveway culvert pipe replacements. As with Phase 1 of this project, the ‘top-coat’ of asphalt, new stone berm and complete stabilization of all disturbed areas will complete the project.

Your continued patience during this vital ROAD and STORM WATER MANAGEMENT project is appreciated.
