Underground utility locates are being marked in the City’s right-of-way so the design team can begin with their initial survey and geotechnical investigation efforts. Beginning this month, crews may be taking photos, surveying the area for elevation and locations of utilities, mapping and accessing the health of trees, installing groundwater monitors, undertaking geotechnical investigations and pavement testing, and gathering other information to inform the early stages of design work and future construction. Most of the preliminary work is expected to take a few months to complete, although some follow-up visits throughout 2023 may be needed.
Neighbors may notice the following:
- Survey crews will be conducting field work predominantly in the public right-of-way, but at times, may need to access private properties to verify property corners and monument markers. Crews will door knock residences, or leave door hangers where they need to access private properties.
- A few intermittent lane closures may occur during the daytime while crews install groundwater monitors or conduct exploratory digging. Flaggers or signage will direct drivers or assist local neighbors with access.
- Trees may be flagged during survey work. We will be looking at how to minimize impact to trees and will have an arborist working with the team.
- Underground utilities will be marked on the street with paint. Paint marks will disappear over time.
- Wooden stakes with flags might be left at some places along the project area. These may indicate the public right-of-way, drainage issues, or other considerations. Please do not remove or adjust the stakes.

Preliminary work is expected to begin in the next few weeks along Lakeview Boulevard. Underground utilities will be marked in the City’s right-of-way so the design team can begin with their initial survey efforts. Paint marks will disappear over time. Wooden stakes with flags might be left at some places along the project area. These may indicate the public right-of-way, drainage issues, or other considerations. Please do not remove the stakes.
