5/11/07 Coastal Highway is open again! Now Poplar is closed.
3/4/07 Loja was paved last Wednesday and should open any day now. Once Poplar has been paved and opened, it will be our new way into the Town Center as Coastal Highway will be closed to allow for the installation of an additional filtration system.
1/26/07 Vilano Road was paved in mid-December 2006 as planned. The water filtration system is being installed in front of Fiddler's Green and at the intersection of Loja and Ferrol. Loja and Ferrol will be a 5-point intersection (Loja, Ferrol, Palencia) and is scheduled to be finished at the end of February. At that time Ferrol Road east bound from Loja to Anahma will be closed to through traffic and work is finished on the filtration system by Fiddler's. Ferrol/Anahma intersection will be closed until the end of May 2007.
Greg Caldwell, project engineer with St. Johns county, recently reported to the Vilano Beach Main Street group that paving of Vilano Road from Coastal Highway west to the Intracoastal will occur in mid-December.
I am happy to report that the paving of Vilano Road did happen right on schedule on Dec. 14th and 15, 2006. It was a thrill, truly, to ride down Vilano Road recently and see the angled on-street parking. Loja Road with our drainage system is moving along well, too.
The entire project will be completed ("last plant in place") in July 2007. The project is ahead of schedule according to Mr. Caldwell. The entire project included streetscaping items such as landscaping, benches, lights, crosswalks, and parks. |
