Crane delivery work plan for June 18

A construction crane will arrive and be put in place at the Viking Union on Monday, June 18.

Anticipated duration for road closure is 7 a.m. to 8:30 a.m.

7:00 a.m. – Crane tractor and dolly approach from the north end of High Street, pull past the gate in front of the construction site and back in through construction zone fencing.

Flaggers will be located at the southwest corner of Wilson Library and in front of Viking Commons to restrict access to High Street at those points.

The length of the tractor and dolly is 70’, so it will obstruct most of the width of High Street

8:30 a.m. – Crane tractor leaves site, traveling south.  High Street reopens.

Flaggers will move to the construction access zone.

8:45 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. – Crane counterweights will be delivered on two separate tractor trailers, approaching again from the north end of High Street, and leaving to the south.  These two tractor trailers will be staged within the construction zone off of the roadway.

                Flaggers will control traffic as needed to accommodate tractor trailers arriving and leaving.
