That being the case there more to <br /> come before any construction will take place. <br /> From what I saw the stormwater system for Route 151 is being upgraded with runoff generally being directed away from <br /> Quashnet River. However the extent to which this is being done is not clear from the plans that I saw. They are only <br /> digitized at DPW and there are no hard copies yet. <br /> The plans call for some infiltration with an overflow directed to the north side of Route 151. 1 cannot tell at this point what <br /> level of infiltration or overflow is planned in the design. <br /> The plans show paved aprons in the vicinity of the two cart paths that exist on the south side of Route 151; one on each <br /> side of the Quashnet River. I was not able to see any details of the construction at this time. <br /> Inspections Since Last Meeting <br /> Blue Castle Drive and Carriage Drive <br /> Based on an e-mail received regarding issues at Blue Castle Drive and Carriage Drive, I made an inspection of both <br /> roadways. From what was observed, Blue Castle Drive appears to be in reasonable condition. There is a small amount <br /> of material at the transition from asphalt to the recycled portion of the road that has washed onto the pavement but could <br /> be pushed back with a street broom. <br /> At the paved portion of Blue Castle Drive beyond the recycled portion of the road, there is some sediment buildup on the <br /> pavement that should be swept. Along Carriage Drive there is sediment buildup around each of the catch basins. The <br /> line of sediment protection of burlap wattles that is on the edges of Carriage Drive is being overtopped and should be <br /> redone. If there is filter fabric still in the catch basins, it should be removed once the shoulders are cleaned up and <br /> protected <br /> Country Club Lane <br /> On going inspections of Country Club Lane off Old Barnstable Road have included recent fine grading and compaction of <br /> the recycled materials. Three side roads as well as Country Club Lane were completed with binder course of asphalt <br /> yesterday, The surface was in good condition despite the amount of rain and cold temperatures. At Old Barnstable Road <br /> the intersection was paved as per the original plan that was approved by the Planning Board. <br /> Willowbend Project, Sampson's Mill Road <br /> An inspection was made of the recycled material placed on the roadways as shown on the approved site plans. Drainage <br /> is nearly complete. A call was made to the site contractor about connecting the low point in the road profile to the <br /> subsurface infiltration system. No paving has been scheduled as of late this afternoon as rain and low temperatures are <br /> expected to keep the surface quite wet. <br />
