Project Overview
The City will begin a major road resurfacing project on Chagrin Boulevard the week of June 13. The entire length of Chagrin will be resurfaced. The project has been delineated into the following four phases:
| LIMITS OF PROJECT | ANTICIPATED START DATE | ANTICIPATED FINISH DATE |
|---|
| Phase 1: Western city limit to Lee Road | Mid-June | Late July |
| Phase 2: Lee Road to Avalon Road | Late July | Early September |
| Phase 3: Avalon Road to Farnsleigh Road | Early September | Early November |
| Phase 4: Helen Road to Eastern city limit | Spring 2023 | Spring 2023 |
The general scope of work for each phase of the resurfacing consists of:
- Task I: Pavement grinding and removal of asphalt.
- Task II: Installation of the intermediate asphalt course to provide a smooth riding surface during construction. Pavement repairs, utility casting adjustments, installation of Americans with Disability Act (ADA) compliant curb ramps, select curb and apron replacement will also be completed during this task.
- Task III: Installation of the surface asphalt course, pavement markings and restoration work
The intersection reconfiguration project will consist of removal of existing curb, installation and realignment of new curb & drainage structures, new sidewalk and ADA curb ramps, traffic control devices, landscaping and pavement markings.
The entire project is scheduled for completion by mid-December (weather permitting).
