Hayfield Road Pipe Project Manager Dave Anglin sent the following information on December 4 along with apologies for the short notice. He will work with the contractor to make sure we receive as much notice as possible on any future activity that could disturb the neighborhood. The contractor (Garney) plans to receive pre-cast box culvert sections over the next three Saturdays (December 7, 14 and 21).

Those living along Hayfield Road may want to avoid parking on Hayfield Road on these three Saturdays from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM or until the last of 12 tractor trailer flat-bed trucks leaves the neighborhood. There are two especially important areas to keep clear: (1) the south bound section where the pool property fronts along Hayfield Road to allow sufficient room for trucks to turn into the parking lot drive way; (2) it will also be helpful if the residents at 7815, 7817, and 7819 Hayfield Road will avoid parking on the street, if possible. The tractor trailer will need room to make the left turn out of the pool property onto Hayfield Road. It will be a tight turn even with the full northbound lane width open. Any cars parked in front of these homes will make that turn more difficult.

The culvert sections will arrive on tractor trailer flat-beds trucks. The reason they do this on Saturdays is due to manpower and safety. A 5-man crew is required to safely unload the culvert sections and that crew is usually busy with the sanitary main pipe work during the normal work week days. They will bring in a total of 12 trucks over a 10-hr workday. Each truck has 3 sections, and each section takes about 30 minutes to properly offload. The first delivery will be at 7:00 a.m. and we made it quite clear that they cannot enter the neighborhood prior to 7:00 a.m. (Unfortunately, the noise ordinance limits work prior to 9:00 a.m. only on Sunday and federal holidays.) The delivery trucks will be able to turn right down into the laydown area in the pool parking lot to off load and then depart. This is the first delivery set for the pre-cast culvert sections. The remaining culvert sections will not be ready until the end of January. Dave will provide as much advance notice about that schedule as possible.

 

Reminder about Replacement Trees / Hayfield Road Pipe Project

Mary Millikin, HCA Beautification Chair, wants to remind Hayfield Farm residents about the County’s requirement for replacement trees. To address any concerns about replacement trees for trees that are removed, the County is requiring the contractor to replant the same type of trees that they removed in the same places. Those trees include red maples, American hollies and redbuds. The “100% Design Plan for the Hayfield Road Pipe Conveyance System” dated July 9, 2018 specifies this on page 96.
