Work Is complete!

Things are wrapping up and all pavements should be re-opening for full operations. The Contractor will still be working on clean-up items, so while pavements are open, please be aware that there will be some equipment still out operating on the airfield.
We are coming to an end. The Contractor is paving, and hope to have it complete by August 7th. Clean up work and final marking will be done in about a month

The gray material is structural fill being placed as the final layer of dirt. The next steps are to construct the pavement.
The wingwalls at the downstream end of the box culvert are starting to take shape.
The Contractor is wrapping up their work on the expanded stormwater management basin adjacent to Taxiway K.

The concrete foundation (floor of the box culvert) forms being installed.
The 6-foot wide by 6-foot high culvert rests on a bedding of stone.
With the diversion ditch in operation the contractor started to remove the old concrete channel in preparation for the foundation of the box culvert.
The project requires the installation of a 300 foot long box culvert to carry water under new Taxiway G. The contractor has installed a diversion ditch and placed plastic in the bottom to allow water to still flow through the project site and around the box culvert construction.
Work is underway!
One of the first steps for any project is the installation of erosion and sediment control measures to prevent, to the maximum extent possible, any sediment from exiting the project site.
This sediment trap at the lower end of the project traps sediment laden water, allowing the sediment to settle out as the water is slowly released.
