East Park Boulevard Improvement Project

General Information

Project Location(s):	Park Boulevard - Villa Avenue to the east dead end
Project Status:	Under Construction
Start Date:	February 15, 2015
Tentative Completion Date:	To Be Determined
Contractor:	A Lamp Concrete Contractors, Inc.
Construction Engineer:	Clark Dietz, Inc.
Design Engineer:	Robinson Engineering
Awarded Contract Amount:	$1,397,533.16
Funding Sources:	Street Improvement; GO Bonds; Water Supply; Wastewater

Objective

To significantly improve the condition of the roadway by removing the existing deteriorated pavement and replacing it with new, structurally sound pavement. The storm sewer installation will lessen the frequency of flooding since roadway drainage will no longer be connected to the combined sewer system.

Description

This project consists of the complete reconstruction of East Park Boulevard from Villa Avenue to the east dead end, and includes new storm sewer installation, as well as selective improvements to the sanitary sewer and water supply systems.

Justification

The Village's pavement management program has determined that the condition of the street has deteriorated to the point where complete reconstruction is needed. The storm sewer, which is recommended in a 1981 Flood Control Study, will lessen the frequency of combined sewer surcharging. Construction is contingent upon the availability of funding.
