This pedestrian crossover project will be completed early this Fall.
UPDATE: Heritage Drive Paving Project will continue on Monday, August 26 and Tuesday, August 27. Residents & Visitors may notice dust control watering over the weekend (Aug 24 to 25).
Road Paving will occur on Heritage Drive from Waterside Lane to the Marina Parking Lot. Heritage Drive will remain open, including access to the Boat Launch and Yacht Club, but may be limited to single lane intermittently throughout the construction project. Expect traffic delays on Heritage Drive. People are also asked to avoid the Walking/Cycling Trail along Heritage Drive during the construction project. Safety first!
