Seltice Way revitalization project begins April 10

Posted: 4/6/2017 11:16:45 AM
A $5.44 million revitalization of Seltice Way begins April 10 and motorists should be aware of major traffic revisions during the project.

The project will provide for a new streetscape, roundabouts at Grand Mill Lane/Idewild Loop and Atlas Road, bike lanes, shared-use paths as well as upgraded water and wastewater utilities between Huetter Road and Northwest Boulevard. The project is projected to last into the first quarter of 2018 and work is weather dependent.

During the first phase of the project, expected to run until mid-July, traffic will be shifted to the north lanes of Seltice Way and reduced to one lane each direction. This will allow for construction to be focused on the south side lanes (see attached diagram for traffic control during Phase I). Traffic will shift to the southern Seltice Way lanes for the second phase.

To minimize conflicts with construction work, the intersection of Grand Mill Lane and Seltice Way will be closed during Phase I.  Those living, visiting, and working in the Mill River area should utilize Huetter Road to access Seltice Way. Access to Idewild Loop will remain open.

The project contractor, T. LaRiviere, will be doing outreach to businesses and residents impacted by the Grand Mill Lane closure.

During both phases of construction, work will occur at roundabouts planned for Grand Mill Lane and Atlas Road.  Short and varying shifts in traffic should be expected in these areas.  All traffic lanes will be clearly marked for motorists, and caution is urged within the construction zone.

Access to property will be maintained during all phases of construction.  However, there will be occasions when those areas are accessed via temporary drive lanes and driveways.
