Electric Conduit Construction (E.C.C.), on behalf of Sunesys/Crown Castle, will be installing fiber optic cables and associated equipment at Belmont and Seminary, on Seminary south of Belmont and in the alley west of Seminary. These improvements will enhance the speed and dependability of wireless communications in the area. The impacted area of the project is depicted below.
Type of Construction: The fiber optic cables will be installed underground (within right-of-ways) using directional boring, in order to minimize damage to the right-of-ways as well as some open cut trenching. There will also be installation of three (3) communication manholes, two (2) quazite boxes and the replacement of two (2) light poles. After installation, splicing will be performed to complete the project. In the event that pedestrian or vehicle traffic needs to be altered to accommodate construction equipment, barriers and signage will be installed to ensure the safety of those in the area. Any disturbed areas will receive an immediate temporary restoration solution, with a permanent restoration to previous or better condition to be performed later.
Impacted Area: Construction will start at the north west corner of Belmont and Seminary continue south on Seminary into the first alley. Crews will then head west into the alley to the second wooden ComEd pole.
Parking Restrictions: No parking signs will be posted along the following boundaries and will be in effect during construction hours:
- 1100 – 1115 W. Belmont
- 3135 – 3216 N. Seminary
Work Hours: 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Project Duration: October 17, 2019 through December 11, 2019 (Monday through Friday)
