Street East). This work involves the replacement of the existing storm and sanitary sewers,
watermain, road surface, curb, sidewalks, service connections, and streetscaping appropriate for
the Mixed Use Corridor.
Construction for this project is anticipated to take approximately 100 working days and is
anticipated to have a construction start date of April 10th, 2006.
