Project Update March 29th - April 2nd

Potelco is continuing to work, mostly east of Boulevard Road. On Monday afternoon, April 5th, the traffic signal at Yelm Highway and Rich Road will be down for 15-30 minutes while Potelco cuts the power over from the old poles to the new poles. There will be flaggers, but please be patient during the operation.


Comcast is scheduled to begin work next week. They plan to begin work at Rich Road and work east.


Bid opening is scheduled for April 14, 2010, and it will take several weeks after that before the contractor will be ready to begin work.   (Note: "Bid Opening" is when the submitted sealed bids are looked at and the contracted is then awarded after verification of the apparent winning contractor's information.)

This project is being undertaken in cooperation with the cities of Olympia and Tumwater.


Ed Note: The Bid Opening has been moved to April 21st
