Saturday Work 10/23

Fire Department Crews from the City of Rochester will be onsite on Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to noon practicing Tower Crane rescue operations. Noise should be typical construction level noise and emergency vehicles will be onsite for this exercise.

During the week, crews will be installing the south elevation retaining wall/new exit corridor foundation wall. Excavation and grading work will also be happening during these activities.

The Tower Crane will be in full operation building the super structure steel.  The crane may be running a little later on certain days to make up for the loss of morning day light.

As communicated previously, the South Building roofing work that occurred this summer was delayed prior to its completion. We are anticipating that the work will resume in the next few weeks, once the roofer acquires the permit for a small crane. Crews will be using the same method as last time:

• The crane will be located in the Mt. Vernon cut-out.
• The west sidewalk and one lane of Mt. Vernon will be closed when the crane is in use.
• Flaggers will be on hand to direct traffic when the crane is in use.
• Signage will indicate the sidewalk closure.

We will send out an additional blog post once we have more detailed information and specific timing.

Typical levels of construction noise and vibrations are expected with all of these activities. For the deep foundation work, any possible vibrations will be monitored by a third party testing agency.
