Mail, Garbage, and Recycling Services.
The Contractor will be responsible for coordinating garbage and recycling pick-up and mail services. Residents and businesses in the project area are asked to mark their garbage and recycling containers with their address to ensure they get their same containers back. Please deliver your containers to their regular pick-up spot the night before when work is being completed in your area. The Contractor will move them to where they will be emptied and then return them to each property.
Carver Street and City Parking Lot Traffic Pattern
When the intersection of 2nd Street and Carver Street is closed, the alley between the City parking lot and 3rd Street will become a one-way. A ramp will be constructed over the curb to allow traffic from Carver Street to circulate through the parking lot and exit through the alley. South of 2nd Street, Carver Street will become a one-way in the opposite direction it currently operates. Traffic will circulate through the clinic parking lot and exit through the alley.
