The Prescott Public Works Department will conduct night work of State Route 89 between the Willow Lake Roundabout and the Phippen Roundabout January 27 to 31 from 8 pm to 5 am to for testing and preparation for the underground utility improvements in that area.
The initial design phase of the Effluent & Wastewater Pipelines & SR89 Improvements Project has started.
In order for the design team to gain a full understanding of the underground utilities and rock structure underneath the roadway that will aid in the design and placement of new effluent and wastewater pipelines, the survey crews will need to perform surface and subsurface geotechnical investigation.
Due to equipment placement and the sensitive nature of the measuring equipment, this investigation will require a full road closure of SR89 between the Willow Lake Road and Phippen Roundabouts. To minimize the impact on the traveling public, this work and full road closure will be performed at night between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m., from January 27, to January 31. Detour routes will be in place at the Willow Lake Road and Phippen Roundabouts. Local traffic will be allowed to enter and exit the closure area at all times.
Please follow the marked signage and allow for extra time to get to your destination. The City appreciates your help and understanding as survey crews gather data to assist project design.
