Weekend Work 7/15 and 7/16

We're pleased to report that Highland will begin admitting patients to the new tower starting on Monday. A majority of the work on the new space is now complete. Moving forward, updates on Highland Facilities activities on campus will be sent on an as needed basis.

This weekend, a small crane will be on campus for work on an AC project in the loading dock area on the Rockingham side of the hospital. Crews will be onsite from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Sounds will include the voices of construction workers and trucks backing up.

Another small crane will be used on Saturday morning from 7 a.m. to noon in the Mt. Vernon cut out to remove excess roofing material from the south building. Traffic is not expected to be impacted. Flaggers will be onsite to assist with any possible traffic or sidewalk needs.

Ribbon Cutting Friday and Small Crane Saturday

Crews will be on site this afternoon to set up a tent for the ribbon cutting ceremony on Friday. The tent will then be taken down on Friday afternoon.

On Saturday, crews will be using a small crane parked in the Mt. Vernon cutout to remove some old equipment off the roof. This work will take place between 7 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. Flaggers will be on site for sidewalk traffic. Car traffic should not be impacted by this activity.

After this week, there should be minimal exterior work now that the landscaping is complete. Indoor work continues so some truck noise will still be present.
