Morgantown Utility Board has two projects in the works on Baldwin Street and Killarney Drive.
During the first week of June and continuing into July, Morgantown Utility Board will begin installation of roughly 1,570 feet of 18-inch gravity storm line and eight manholes along Baldwin Street. The project, which will cost $286,700, is scheduled to progress from the intersection with Patteson Drive toward University Avenue.
Road closures along Baldwin Street will be necessary from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. Crews will make every effort to reopen the street after 4 p.m. and on weekends. Road surface restoration will occur as work progresses. Detours may also be necessary where Baldwin Street and University Avenue intersect and also where Baldwin Street and Patteson Drive intersect.
This work is being performed on behalf of the West Virginia Department of Highways in support of the DOH’s roundabout project at the intersection of University Avenue and Collins Ferry Road. In preparation for this work, MUB will mobilize equipment and station supplies at or along Baldwin Street, where possible.
In collaboration with the City of Morgantown, the Morgantown Utility Board is planning a construction project on Killarney Drive at the intersection of Dogwood Avenue.
The estimated cost of this project is $230,000, which is being equally shared between the City and MUB. Work includes replacing the crossing of Burroughs Run and installing a 13-foot by 6-foot pre-cast concrete box culvert.
This project is out to bid with the bid opening scheduled for 3 p.m. June 4. The public will be notified when a contractor is selected and the start date is confirmed. It is a 120-day contract from the date of the issuance of the Notice to Proceed.
