Weekly Update- May 10th - 14th

Most of the work going on this week is behind the scenes.  

From the Project Coordinator: "The apparent low bidder, Miles Resources LLC, dba:  Woodworth and Company, is scheduled to be awarded the project on May 18, 2010.  It will take several weeks to execute all required documents, with anticipated beginning of construction around the second week of June.  Comcast is working on their overhead cut-over.  Not much other activity until the Contractor starts work."

Please support local businesses during the construction. Every effort will be made to keep access open to all businesses and residences during the 2 year project. Remember to allow extra time for your travels if you use Yelm Highway as part of your route.

Follow us on Twitter for up to the minute information about conditions along the project. We will try to post lane closures and other important information using  Twitter and our blog.

Thurston County Public works will also be utilizing blogs and Twitter to keep the public informed about our other road projects and construction, including a major project on Vail Rd and the 2010 Chipseal and Resurfacing programs.
