HI, EVERYBODY. I'M PATTY MORAN, AND I'M BACK WITH STREET TALK Q&AS.
WHEN WE POST A NEW ROAD PROJECT, WE OFTEN GET ASKED HOW LONG IT'S GOING TO TAKE FOR IT TO BE COMPLETED.
THIS HONESTLY DEPENDS ON THE TYPE OF CONSTRUCTION BEING DONE.
OTHER FACTORS LIKE LOCATION, SIZE AND EVEN EXTERNAL FACTORS LIKE WEATHER CAN AFFECT DURATION.
THANKFULLY, AFTER MANY COMPLETED PROJECTS, THE STREET DEPARTMENT HAS A GOOD IDEA ON HOW LONG PROJECTS MAY LAST.
STREET RECONSTRUCTION OCCURS WHEN CREWS REBUILD THE STREET.
THIS IS ESTIMATED TO LAST EIGHT WEEKS.
STREET REHABILITATION IS THE RESTORATION OF THE STREET, BY EITHER DOING ASPHALT OVERLAYS OR CONCRETE PANEL REPLACEMENTS.
OVERLAYS, USUALLY LAST ONE TO TWO DAYS AND REPLACEMENTS LAST ROUGHLY FOUR WEEKS.
ALLEY RECONSTRUCTION OCCURS WHEN CREWS REBUILT THE ALLEY.
THIS IS ESTIMATED TO LAST EIGHT WEEKS.
ALLEY REHABILITATION IS THE RESTORATION OF THE ALLEY, REPLACEMENTS ROUGHLY LAST FOUR WEEKS.
KEEP IN MIND, IF YOUR STREET OR ALLEY WILL BE UNDER CONSTRUCTION, WE WILL DELIVER PHYSICAL NOTICES WITH MORE DETAILS WITH PLENTY OF TIME IN ADVANCE.
SO THE NEXT TIME YOU FIND YOURSELF WONDERING HOW LONG A PROJECT'S GOING TO LAST. NOW, YOU KNOW, IT ALL DEPENDS ON THE TYPE OF CONSTRUCTION.
BUT IF YOU'RE EVER CURIOUS ABOUT CURRENT AND ACTIVE STREET PROJECTS, YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION IN OUR CURRENT PROJECTS WEBPAGE AND THE CITY OF GARLAND WEBSITE.
AND DON'T FORGET TO FOLLOW US ON OUR SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS. WE POST NOTICES AND UPDATES THERE.
AS ALWAYS, WE WANT TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE.
THE STREET DEPARTMENT IS HERE TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR STREET NEEDS, AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE LEAVE THEM IN THE COMMENT SECTION.
WE'RE EXCITED TO SEE WHAT
THINGS YOU ARE CURIOUS ABOUT.
