2020 Streets Improvement Project Notice

May 21, 2020

Dear Sir or Madam,

The 2020 Streets Improvement Project will begin saw cutting as early as May 22, and continue on Tuesday May 26, weather permitting.  The reverse side of this letter shows a map of the area impacted. This letter provides important information about the project activities, the project schedule, and contact information if you have questions or concerns. Periodic project updates, progress, and schedule will be available at http://northaurora.org/ starting May 29.  We apologize in advance for the inconvenience this project may temporarily have on your neighborhood.

Project Activities.
This year the work will be performed by Geneva Construction and their sub-contractors. The project will consist of the removal and replacement of the asphalt pavement, the removal and replacement of hazardous and deteriorated sidewalk and curb, the installation of and repair of some storm sewer, and the restoration of the areas that are disturbed by the construction activities.   During this project the Village of North Aurora will try to minimize your inconvenience. Please place garbage out on Thursday evening because Waste Management may come early Friday morning for pick-up. Mail delivery will not be interrupted and emergency response vehicles will have access at all times.

When the road surface is milled, a displacement (bump) will be created between your driveway and the street.  Immediately after this operation the contractor will ramp your driveway temporarily to provide access. If the curb in front of your driveway is painted for replacement, you will not be able to access your driveway until it has cured approximately 4 days to a strength to support vehicular traffic. The contractor will notify you in advance so you can get vehicles you need to use out of the driveway. The contractor will generally work between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m., however they are allowed by ordinance to from work 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. During this time cars shall not be parked on the street.

Traffic Control.
You will notice traffic control devices like barricades, construction barrels, and signs erected to direct traffic. Please pay careful attention to flaggers, signs, barricades and drive slowly with caution. 

Project Schedule.
The project is scheduled to begin May 22, 2020 with the installation of traffic control, and follow with saw cutting concrete repairs, sewer repairs, milling, patching, adjustments, asphalt paving and then parkway restoration. We anticipate the project will be completed by August 28, 2020.  Check the Village web site for project schedule updates. http://northaurora.org/
