Wednesday, March 12, 1:30—3:30 p.m., Deer Harbor Community Center
— from Charles Binford —
The Deer Harbor Plan Review Committee will hold its regular meeting 1:30PM, Wednesday March 12 at The Deer Harbor Community Center. In addition to regular agenda business, the meeting will focus on the progress and timeline of the much needed Channel Road Bridge replacement. While the actual project isn’t scheduled for completion until late 2015, the planning, design and community preferences are on the table now and decisions will be made as the various aspects of the project are decided.
The timeline, (for now, but subject to change) for the Channel Road Bridge replacement looks like this:
- Design (Type, Size and Location) February – March 2014
- Preliminary Design and Environmental March – September 2014
- Final Design and Permitting October- December 2014
- PS&E December 2014
- Advertise for Bids January 2015
- Construction Award April 2015.
The Deer Harbor Plan Review Committee has worked in close liaison with San Juan County Public Works personnel for more than a year focusing on the need to remove the blind rise in Channel Road as it fronts The Deer Harbor Fire Station, the troublesome and ever increasing hump in the exit from the Post Office onto Jack & Jill Road and the Channel Road Bridge, certainly the most critical in that it has already been tagged for restricted travel. We have been assured that present bridge with the restrictions will serve safely until a new one can be built.
Colin Huntemer, PE, Senior Project Engineer, San Juan County Public Works Department will be at the DHPRC meeting March 12 as will Rachael Dietzman, Director, San Juan County Public Works Department and Council person, Rick Hughes.
The agenda for the meeting is as follows. The public is invited and urged to participate in these important deliberations.
