Hampden issued the following announcement on July 16.
Hampden Township awarded the 2021 street resurfacing contract to Pennsy Supply, Inc. The scope of the project includes resurfacing of approximately 14 miles of streets, installation and reconstruction of affected stormwater and sanitary sewer facilities and installation of sidewalk curb cuts to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act. The streets scheduled to be resurfaced were approved after a comprehensive inspection and review of the 130 plus miles of all Township-owned streets. Following is a link to a project map which depicts the roads to be paved during the project, (Click Here).
The tentative schedule below is subject to weather and site conditions:
- Mt. View Rd/Roth Lane – July 19 to August 15
- Lambs Gap Rd- July 25 to August 15
- Creekview Development – July 25 to August 29
- Hollywood Development – July 25 to September 5
- Pinebrook Heights Development – August 1 to September 12
- Delbrook Development – August 1 to September 28
- Westover Development – August 22 to October 15
Hours of work will generally be limited to weekdays from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Motorists should expect modified traffic patterns which will be controlled by certified flaggers to ensure safety.
There may be limited local road closures at times, however access to developments and properties will be maintained throughout the project. Mail delivery, trash, school bus and emergency services will not be disrupted.
The contractor will use message boards and issue notices to residents regarding the project schedule, on-street parking restrictions and temporary road closures. The Township and Pennsy Supply request that residents comply with parking restrictions and make every effort to use off street parking during construction. Additionally, we ask that trash/recycling bins and temporary basketball backboards not be placed in the roadway once notice of a paving schedule and parking restriction are posted on a specific street. These efforts will speed construction and help limit any inconvenience the project may cause.
When feasible, motorists are strongly encouraged to avoid the project areas while work is ongoing. If a motorist notices paving material on their car, after traveling through the project area, they are encouraged to wash the car as soon as possible to remove the material.
