Weaver Street work nearly complete

Posted on January 5, 2012 by Staff

CARRBORO – Construction on West Weaver Street is in its final stage as the yearlong project to replace the street’s collapsing roadbed and the 80-year-old water main beneath it progresses.

The project moved into Phase 5 in early December, and is currently closed at the west end of the street. While the construction time depends on weather and other factors, it is estimated to take two to three weeks to complete. Contractors will continue to replace the pavement near the intersection of Elm Street, causing the intersection to be closed, with access from Poplar Avenue or Shelton Street.

Work on the east block was completed in July, at which point the contractor began work on the second phase of the project in the west block. Work is progressing from east to west, toward Carrboro Town Hall. The water main was already replaced in the west block, while work was completed in the east block.

Pedestrian access remains open along the block, though pedestrians may be directed to one side of the street or the other depending on the proximity of construction activities.

The contractor will typically work during daylight hours, Monday-Friday, though weekend work may occur depending on progress and scheduling.
