DNT is completed the fine grading on topsoil and prepared for seeding at the east end along CR 269, which Subcontractor Matoka 

performed on Tuesday and Wednesday along CR 269. DNT is grading subgrade at the west end of Hero Way and hauling off 

excess materials and stockpiles. Subcontractor Progress Rail's subcontractor Spec will resume work when the remaining railroad 

signal materials are delivered. Subcontractor M&M installed the underdrain pipes at the railroad crossing. Subcontractor ATS bored 

and installed conduit to tie the intersection signals into the railroad crossing gates. A meeting with AT&T was held two weeks ago to 

discuss required adjustments necessary for the height of the overhead lines on the east side of the railroad tracks (do not currently 

meeting minimum required clearances) - no resolution from AT&T yet. 

Subcontractor Ramming paved everything at the west end at the tie-into CR 279 except the new portion of CR 279. Cash is 

rebuilding and processing subgrade for the right turn lane off of CR 279 onto San Gabriel West. Traffic continues to be detoured 

down Halsey and down San Gabriel West through the project to get back onto CR 279 during this phase of construction. Cash also 

installed the box culverts along the west side of CR 279. Subcontractor ATS is trenching and installing conduit across CR 279 at the 

intersection with San Gabriel West. 

Joe Bland is pouring concrete riprap adjacent to the westbound lanes between Sta 351+00 and 318+75 and between Driveways 14 

and 15. The Contractor is fine grading the ditches near Driveway 23 and Deep Lake Drive, working back to the west. Joe Bland 

continues to place topsoil along the westbound lanes and installed additional culvert pipes for the new driveways added on the last 

CO. 

Capital Excavation continues to excavate to subgrade for the southbound lanes of Cottonwood Creek Trail and eastbound lanes of 

New Hope and hauling the excess material offsite. The Contractor completed excavating, setting, and backfilling the double barrel 

10’x 6’ concrete box culverts at Cottonwood Creek. Subcontractor G Carter poured the last signal foundation at the New Hope and 

Cottonwood Creek Trail intersection and began installing conduit.
