Our contractor team, Danella, will be performing excavation closer to the Porter Avenue intersection. This work is being conducted in compliance with DOT requirements and is part of our ongoing efforts to enhance system reliability and support future operational needs. Cones and flaggers will be utilized on site to safely direct traffic and pedestrians around these excavations during work hours (Monday - Friday 8 AM - 4 PM).

Please note: there will be no interruption to service for our customers. What you may expect during construction:

• Full roadway closure on Ingraham Street during work hours.
• Excavations. Digging within the roadway and sidewalk. All excavations will be plated during non-working hours.
• Traffic Impacts. Work will be in the sidewalk and roadway with traffic flaggers on site to assist pedestrians and motorists.
