The Public Works Director announced today that effective at 7:00 a.m., Monday,
May 22, 2006, and for the next twenty to thirty days, the City’s contractor will
progress with the 2006 HMA Overlay Project in the South Hill area.  This
involves the following streets:  16th Street, Hedge to dead end; Dodge Street,
10th to Madison; 10th Street, Dodge to South; 12th Street, South to Spruce; 8th
Street, South to Angular; and Amelia Street, Leebrick to Marshall.  This will
result in temporary street closures and/or lane restrictions.

The closures and restrictions are required to permit the removal of the old
asphalt surface and the cleaning and repair of the street surface prior to
asphalt overlay.

He further announced that once work begins on a street, there will be no parking
on the streets within the construction zones until the street surface is
restored.  Motorists should be cautious of exposed utilities and barricades
along the length of the project.

The work is expected to take twenty to thirty days.
