Town Green Construction Progress, 1/14/11

Due to the inclement weather experienced for the first few days of the week, crews were not on site and could not engage in any further work on the project due to the frozen ground and wet soil conditions. Contractors for AT&T did accomplish their goal of removing overhead lines, so as we move forward into next week crews are projected  to hit the ground running.

Live Oak trees were scheduled for delivery this week but were postponed due to the weather.  That schedule has been moved back to the middle of next week.  Soil quality tests are currently being completed by Clemson University to determine the alkalinity of the soil and ensure the best conditions for the new trees to take root.

Barring no further delays due to weather, the project should continue to move steadily and may still finish ahead of schedule.  Next week’s weather outlook is moderate to good with higher temperatures expected.  If the soil dries out, then more paving of driveways can begin.  The successful installation of the Live Oak trees is our main concern.
