Roads Division
In the month of November, the Roads crew focused on crack sealing Skyline Dr. The crew distributed approximately 3180 lbs. of crack seal material and finished the goal of crack sealing Skyline.
The Roads crew also spent a significant amount of effort re-establishing major drainage easements with a rental dozer. The drainage locations are:
- Columbia Way
- Equestrian Center
- Bear Valley Rd near Sutter Ct.
- Rolling Oak near Condos
- San Juan near Plantation Ct.
Granite Construction started and completed the capital Gate Drainage Project with great results, flushing out 8 culverts and adding rip-rap to 13 locations around the inlets and outlets of the culverts. The crew also spent time assisting in flushing and clearing culvert pipes and drainage easements near the gate area to reduce the overall cost to the Gate Drainage Project.\
