South Seventh Street and Greenview Drive Improvements Project

Project L​imits

• South Seventh Street, Scio Church Road to Lawton Elementary
  School
  
• Greenview Drive, West Stadium Blvd to South Seventh Street
  

Why is this project being done?

The existing water mains are undersized and require an upgrade to increase capacity and hydrant flow. Also, the current condition of the pavement at some of these locations is poor and in need of replacement.

Work to be done:

• The existing water mains will be replaced with larger water mains to increase capacity.

• The existing pavement will be replaced.
  

• Some storm water improvements will be made.

• South Seventh Street and N. Greenview Drive are All Ages and Abilities Routes so safety improvements are being implemented. ​
  

Possible i​mpact to residents:

• South Seventh Street and Greenview Drive will be closed to through traffic for the duration of the construction. The two streets will be phased for the benefit of the school schedule and minimizing resident intrusion. Driveway access for local traffic will be maintained, but may include delays during working hours.  Cross street traffic will be maintained as much as possible.

• Water service will be interrupted for short durations during water main installation. Disruptions will be limited, and residents will be informed in advance.
  

• General noise and dust from equipment, particularly during site excavation.

• Possible installation of mid-block curb bump outs may eliminate some on-street parking along South Seventh St. It is also possible that some parkin​g could be removed from the first block of Scio Church depending on the design that is selected.​​
