 The City of Jamestown has announced its annual Streets Program with work slated to begin later this month. Department of Public Works Senior Civil Engineer Mark Schlemmer said it’s one of the most ambitious lists in years, “It’s the funding. We got an increase in funding from CHIPS money which comes from the state so that’s what spurred most of this and now we’ve just been told too we can bring on additional summer labor to help us out as well.”
The City of Jamestown has announced its annual Streets Program with work slated to begin later this month. Department of Public Works Senior Civil Engineer Mark Schlemmer said it’s one of the most ambitious lists in years, “It’s the funding. We got an increase in funding from CHIPS money which comes from the state so that’s what spurred most of this and now we’ve just been told too we can bring on additional summer labor to help us out as well.”
Schlemmer said while there are a couple street reconstruction projects planned, one of the more interesting projects is an in-place pavement recycling project that’s scheduled to take place on Newland Avenue from Hallock to Huxley Streets. He said the first time this method was done was on Marvin Parkway, “There’s a long train of equipment that grinds up, and then adds more stone and oil, and then lays it back down. And that’s all done in place, so we’re basically recreating a pavement using what’s there and then adding more to it. So that section of street is long overdue for some work.”
Schlemmer said a benefit of this method is that the process takes just over a day versus many weeks in a regular reconstruction project.
Street work projects are planned to be completed by the end of the fall season, depending on the weather, the flow of public funding, contractor availability and the changing price of materials.
