Beards Hill Road & Barnette Lane Pedestrian Improvements: A DPW Contractor is scheduled to begin construction in the next week at Beards Hill Rd and Barnette Ln. These improvements consist of adding pedestrian ramps, sidewalks and signs. A flashing signal powered by solar will be added so that pedestrians can alert drivers of their intent in crossing the roadway. To support this work, the contractor will be required to adjust the curb alignment, road drainage, and make sidewalk improvements. The project is anticipated to be complete in about 4 weeks. Travel lanes will be operational with temporary traffic controls in place.

Use cautious and be observant of contractors and their vehicles when travelling through the vicinity. We appreciate your patience and cooperation during these safety improvements for our pedestrians.
