The permanent traffic signals have been installed at the intersection of Techny Road and Pfingsten Road. Currently, the Contractor is waiting for ComEd to provide electical power to the traffic signals. Once electrical power is provided, a final inspection on the traffic signals can be scheduled and then performed. The final step will be to activate the permanent traffic signals and remove the temporary traffic signals.Sven Flodstrom, PEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10506180685016176366noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6442338199669857305.post-4622775893436103332012-11-28T07:39:00.000-08:002012-11-28T07:39:07.242-08:00Is it already December 2013?On November 15, 2012; Techny Road was reopened to both eastbound and westbound traffic, a full year ahead of schedule. The only remaining major work that still needs to be completed for this project is the installation of the traffic signals at the intersection of Techny Road and Pfingsten Road. It is currently anticipated that this work will begin around December 10, 2012. The traffic signals will take approximately 3 to 4 weeks to install and should not affect traffic.<br />

The above 72" manhole tee was installed on the south side of Techny Road, just east of Birch Road. The 72" storm sewer will continue from this manhole to Pfingsten Road. The total length is approximately 700 feet and will be completed by the first part of September. At that time, the installation of the 48" storm sewer along the east side of Pfingsten Road will begin. The 48" storm sewer will run from Techny Road to Canterbury Drive.

The top photo is a picture of a 2' diameter storm sewer structure. These structures are being installed along Techny Road and are located in the center of the proposed ditch that will be constructed on the north and south sides of Techny Road. Storm water will enter these structures and then flow into the 84" or 72" main line storm sewer system that is being installed from Second Street to Pfingsten Road. The bottom photo is a picture of a grate that will be placed on top of the 2' diameter structures. <br />
<br />
Currently, the main line storm sewer has been installed from Second Street to Cargill Drive.

This Conflict Junction Chamber was installed at the intersection of Techny Road and Butternut Lane. It measured approximately 12' long, 6' wide and 20' tall and deep. It is a precast concrete structure that was fabricated by Welch Bros., Inc. and delivered to the jobsite in 4 separate sections. The structure was necessary in order to avoid the conflict between the new 84" storm sewer pipe and the existing 8" sanitary sewer.Sven Flodstrom, PEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10506180685016176366noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6442338199669857305.post-53625836082571432572012-06-06T16:59:00.000-07:002012-06-06T16:59:36.636-07:00Road Closure Notice!!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Currently, the Contractor is installing the 84" diameter storm sewer along the south side of Techny Road. This storm sewer has already been installed from Second Street to just west of Penfold Place. Next week, the Contractor will continue to install the 84" diameter storm sewer to the west; on the south side of Techny Road. Also next week, a second storm sewer crew for the Contractor will start to install 2' diameter storm sewer structures in the south ditch along Techny Road. A pipe will be installed from these 2' diameter structures to the 84" diameter storm sewer.Sven Flodstrom, PEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10506180685016176366noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6442338199669857305.post-75599992449791705042012-05-28T17:03:00.001-07:002012-05-28T17:03:45.741-07:00Let the fun begin!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The Techny Road detour plan was implemented on Tuesday, May 22nd. With the detour in place, the Contractor, Berger Excavating; began to install various erosion control measures. One of these measures is perimeter erosion barrier (silt fence) that was installed at specific locations throughout the project. On Thursday, May 24th; the Contractor removed the eastbound lane of Techny Road from Second to Butternut and then installed temporary aggregate driveways for the Homeowners located within the above area. On Friday, May 25th; the Contractor began to unload the 84" storm sewer pipe near Second Street. The installation of this pipe along Techny Road, just west of Second; will begin on Tuesday, May 29th.

NPL (Northern Pipe Line) is an utility contractor hired by Nicor to install new gas main and gas services along Techny Road from Cypress Lane to Second St. This work is required since the existing gas main is located where the new storm sewer is to be installed.
