Birch Bluff Road Street & Utility Project Update

Construction Schedule: September 27-Oct 6

Roadway section work has been completed. Crews will be placing Class 5 gravel on the roadway this week to bring the road up to final grade in preparation for concrete curb.


Concrete curb installation is now going to take place next week due to recent rain showers. Construction staff will inform you when and where your vehicles should be parked as there will be no driveway access.


If you live at 25960 Birch Bluff and west, use Grant Lorenz Rd for access. If you live east of 25960 Birch Bluff, use Eureka Rd for access, unless directed otherwise by construction staff.



Reminders & Private Utility Work


If you have not done so already, please label your garbage cans with your address so that crews may move them to available pickup locations on a weekly basis. Please set your garbage cans out on Tuesday evenings so that construction staff can move cans to a pickup location. 

 

Stop signs have been placed at the intersection of Edgewood Road and Grant Lorenz Road. Please be aware of the temporary traffic change as it is for the safety of everyone living in the neighborhood.


For irrigation that has been cut during the roadwork, please message one of the construction representatives to be added to the list for repairs. Scroll below for contact information.


Package Delivery Drivers will be unable to access homes on Phase 2 of the project during working hours. If you live on Phase 2 of the project and have packages being delivered, please send packages to City Hall for the security of your items. The Address for City hall is listed below:


Shorewood City Hall

5755 Country Club Rd

Shorewood, MN 55331



If you have landscaping plants, fixtures, etc. that you would like to save that falls within the city right-of-way limits, please move them ASAP as construction crews will be excavating and have heavy equipment in these areas.


Temporary mailboxes are set up along Eureka Road and Grant Lorenz road for all residents in the Birch Bluff neighborhood.


All residents are asked to label their garbage, yard waste, and recycling containers. Duct tape with the home address written on it in permanent marker on the can works best. Construction staff will be moving garbage cans around on pickup day so that they are accessible for sanitation services.


Over the next month, parking on the street will be limited, and there may be times when you will have to wait to enter/exit your driveway.


Neighborhood access in the construction zone will be limited only to residents living within the project area. Through traffic will not be allowed once excavation operations begin.


Equipment, materials, and supplies will continue be staged in various locations of the project site. We thank you for your patience with delivery crews and on-site contractors.


Contractor Working Hours are 7AM to 7PM during the work week, and 8AM to 6PM on Saturdays.
