The City is extending existing pavement useful life this year by performing partial and full depth asphalt patches, applying crack sealer, and installing a mastic sealer over the entire roadway surface. The mastic sealer is similar to a driveway sealer that is specially formulated to public roadway surfaces to not track in driveways and to help seal up fine hair type cracks in the pavement surface. Streets in the Springdale Terrace, Springdale Park, and Heritage Hill subdivision will all see this type of pavement preservation to help extend the life of the existing pavement.
In April 2017, contractors began performing pavement repairs in the Glenview subdivision and along Sharon Road. Crack sealing operations began in early May through the Glenview, Heritage Hill, Park and Terrace subdivision.
Crews began installing the SAMI layer of the capeseal process along Sharon Road in June. The SAMI layer includes a heavy tar application to fill cracks and other voids in the pavement surface and an application of gravel to reduce tracking of the tar. Excess gravel will be swept and the roads will be swept once more prior to the second layer application. Step 2 of the process includes a microsurface of the surface which was also completed in June of 2017. Microsurface is an asphalt surface that uses small rock pieces. Affected streets include Vista Glen, Rockcrest, Glensford, Ashleigh, Fallstone, and Ballinger in the Glenview subdivision, Lawnview Avenue, and Sharon Road from Springfield Pike to Ballinger Road.
Starting on June 15 (Weather depending), crews will begin to apply the final mastic seal, a black roadway sealer, on several streets in the community. All streets in the Heritage Hill subdivision, including Audie, Mallet, Terrytown, Pilgrim, Wainright, Marwood, Cornavin, Navonna, Tavel, Ledro, Castro, Benedict, Tivoli and Albano received the final mastic sealer.
The service road off of Springfield Pike (State Route 4) will begin to see construction crews working in the area starting on April 24th. Work includes the replacement of the concrete service road apron and a new asphalt paving surface.
Service Road apron on both the North and South side of the roadway have been removed and replaced. Curb has been installed. Asphalt paving on along the service road will take place soon.
This project has been completed as of May 19, 2017.
The pavement surface along West Kemper Road from Springfield Pike to Kenn Road is in need of minor pavement repairs along both the east and west bound directions. During the summer of 2017, crews will perform both partial and full depth repairs prior to a final asphalt surface is installed. Final paving of the surface course was completed in September along with thermoplastic line striping and raised pavement markers. The City coordinated work with Forest Park to also pave their section of Kemper Road and to also pave the parking stalls along W. Kemper Road on the south side of the street. Minor work is still taking place and will be completed in October of 2017.
Work begun on March 27, 2017. Saw cutting took place in advance of removal of concrete curbs. Crews started on April 14th to rebuild catch basins in this area. Curb removal is planned to start on April 17th. Residents are asked to respect all temporary "No Parking" sign postings. Once the old curbs have been removed, crews will begin installing new curbs with a paver machine. Crews will also be making necessary repairs to the pavement in the form of corrective patches to address areas of failure in the pavement. Following the installation of the curbs and asphalt pavement repairs, a new final course of asphalt will be installed throughout the entire area. Work is complete as of October 6, 2017.
Some residents have been notified that their apron is in need of replacement per the City of Springdale's Code of Ordinance. If you received a letter and plan to make the improvements yourself, please follow this link to the driveway apron permit. Driveway apron permits are accepted by the Springdale Building Department during the hours of 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM Monday through Friday. Once approved, you will be contacted to pickup your permit to allow work to begin.
Reconstruction of the catch basin structures began on March 27, 2017. Old bricks and the catch basin castings were removed and are being replaced with new castings and final brick work. Catch basin work is nearly complete as of April 14th. Work will continue with some minor asphalt patches to be done on the pavement in the neighborhood. Once the pavement repairs are complete, a final asphalt layer will be placed on the roadway along with new pavement markings. Work is complete as of October 6, 2017.
Construction began on March 29, 2017 with layout and saw cutting of the pavement. Construction crews started on Wednesday, April 12th installing storm system components along Whallon Court. Storm work on Whallon Court and Bernhart have been completed. All work in this area is temporary and crews will soon be onsite to begin installation of curbs throughout this area of the project, removal of existing concrete curbs, and replacement with new concrete curbs. After the completion of the storm work and curb replacement, the street will receive a new asphalt pavement surface. Work is complete as of October 6, 2017.
An additional lane will be added to further aid traffic access to I-275 as traffic heads south along Route 4. The City of Springdale partnered with Ohio Department of Transportation to make this project possible from a funding and construction standpoint. The project has been contracted with local contractor Barrett Paving for the ramp modifications.
ODOT has confirmed that work will begin on April 3, 2017. Construction crews will be onsite working outside of the existing roadway during the daylight hours. Any work that may impact traffic will take place during evening hours. Nightly lane closures will take place to help ensure a safe working environment for the construction crews. Work is complete as of July 14, 2017.
Springdale has partnered with Ohio Department of Transportation to pave Springfield Pike from Cameron Road to Glensprings Drive. This partnership is through the ODOT Urban Paving Program which allows local municipalities to pave streets through their jurisdiction while sharing the cost with ODOT. The scope of work includes some minor pavement repairs, installation of a new asphalt driving surface, and new line striping. This construction work started in September 2017 and has been completed as of October 6, 2017.
Starting in December, Springdale residents in the area of Cloverdale Drive will be impacted by a watermain replacement project. This project was brought to the City by Greater Cincinnati Water Works (GCWW) as part of an infrastructure upgrade to the existing watermains that service this area of Springdale. GCWW will be contacting affected residents once the contractor has been selected. The project includes the installation of new watermains and fire hydrants, removal of existing fire hydrants, and reconnection of existing home service lines to the newly installed mains. Disconnection and reconnection to the water service will be coordinated through GCWW.
The contractor has completed the watermain install east of Greenlawn in the subdivision. The contractor is currently working on connecting residents in this area to the new watermain and this work should be complete by November of 2017.
The contract for the area of the subdivision West of Greenlawn has been awarded to a different contractor and that contractor is set to start sometime in November of 2017.
Once the GCWW watermain project is completed, the City and GCWW will perform a final grind and pave of all streets in the subdivision. The final paving associated with this project is scheduled for the Spring of 2018.
The City contracted with local demolition contractor O'Rourke Wrecking for the complete demolition and grading of the site at the former Sheraton Hotel. Crews worked over the summer and fall to remove all of the environmental hazards to allow for demolition to commence. Following the demolition of the building, the site will be regraded and seeded. The City plans to sell the property to a developer that best represents the City's future vision for this site.
O'Rourke Wrecking has re-mobilized to the site of the former Sheraton Hotel site and plans to begin demolition activities during the week of April 17th. Work has begun on the lower areas of the hotel. Demolition of the main hotel structure began on May 4. The site was regraded for proper drainage and reseeded and was completed in July of 2017.
Many projects exist within the City of Springdale that we are currently evaluating for safety, traffic capacity, and future needs. These projects are in the development stages with regard to funding, engineering, and timeframe
