This project consists of utility, pedestrian and roadway improvements on 19 Rd. between Highway 6 & 50 and J.2 Rd. in the City of Fruita. Work includes, but is not limited to, traffic control, the modification of existing and installation of ±1,250’ of new domestic water line and fittings, ±4,200’ of sanitary sewer line, ±5,000’ of storm drain line, ±2,500’ of irrigation line, inlets, manholes and diversion boxes, removal of an existing canal box culvert, installation of ±150’ of new cast-in-place canal box culvert, stormwater BMP installation & maintenance, earthwork, grading, road reconstruction and widening, removal and replacement/resetting of fences, driveways, culverts, mailboxes, etc., installation of concrete curb ramps, traffic islands and sidewalks, and surface restoration/reseeding once underground and paving improvements are completed. A portion of the work will take place in the CDOT right-of-way at the intersection of 19 Rd. and Highway 6 & 50.
The project is anticipated to have a delayed construction start of mid-November 2024 in order to avoid impact to irrigation water delivery; however, if the contractor feels that some work can take place without disruption to irrigation delivery and with a minimal amount of impact to traffic on affected roads, the City will consider allowing construction activities to commence early.
