Week of Nov. 16-20
Work activity
When the U.S. 160 Pagosa Springs Reconstruction project started two years ago, we could not have imagined the flooding events that would impact the Pagosa Springs community. We’ve become part of your community and will continue to work hard to serve you through this devastating time.
Our team is currently working toward a plan for winter shutdown. The flooding events have created challenges in the delivery of materials, equipment and resources needed for the project. WW Clyde is redirecting its resources to prioritize emergency repairs within the project work zone and on critical highway routes that provide access to Pagosa Springs. As such, this will be one of our last weekly updates, and the following work is planned as we go into the holiday season:
• 100 Block and 1st Street: Crews are cleaning and prepping the concrete for sealing prior to the winter season. Crews are also filling and paving asphalt where needed at the 1st Street intersection for continuity into the winter season.
• 1st Street through 5th Street: Road stripers are planning on coming to place striping in the downtown section prior to winter shut down. Striping activities will be conducted the week of Nov. 16, working around pending weather.
• Harman Park/Piedra: Asphalt is being paved at this intersection to fill in areas prior to winter shut down.
• Flood damage: Crews are backfilling damaged areas within the construction site and paving business driveways for continuity of business access for locals and visitors alike.
• Signage: Crews are planning the installation of permanent signage from 1st through 5th streets in preparation to fully open that section of the project.
