Crews are installing new storm drains for Island Home Avenue and Splendid View Circle.
New public infrastructure - a newly realigned Island Home Avenue, a public riverwalk and a new public road, Splendid View Circle - accompany the construction of the 134-unit River’s Edge apartment complex on the east end of Island Home Avenue, near the Island Home Park neighborhood.
As part of the recent excavation for the storm drain installation, impacted soils were removed from the site and properly disposed of, while sewer tap installation work also continued.
A section of Island Home Avenue between Sevier Avenue and Maplewood Drive is closed to through traffic while utility work is performed as part of construction for the River's Edge development. The eastbound detour route during construction follows Sevier Avenue to McClung Avenue. It turns left at South Haven Road and continues to Island Home Avenue. The westbound detour will use the same streets in reverse. There also is a posted bicycle detour route.
