Summer Road Construction Epping Lane and South Kensington.






NOTICE
May 23, 2012
Dear Bloomfield Hills Resident:
The City of Bloomfield Hills is pleased to announce the commencement of the  2012 Road Improvement
Program,  which has been awarded to  Pamar Enterprises, Inc. of New Haven, Michigan. The 2012 Road
Improvement Program consists of water main and roadway construction along Epping Lane and sanitary sewer and roadway construction along South Kensington Road (south of Long Lake Road to the southern limits of the City, which is approximately the southern limits of the Academy of the Sacred Heart campus).
Construction along Epping Lane is scheduled to begin on Tuesday, May 29, 2012 and is expected to last until June 30, 2012, weather permitting.  Construction crews are on-site providing layout stakes for the contractor, marking utilities, mobilizing traffic control signage, and installing soil erosion control measures.  Please do not remove the stakes as they are needed to properly align construction of the underground utilities and roadway.
Construction along South Kensington Road will not begin until Monday, June 18, 2012.  Construction crews
will be on-site prior to this date to perform some preparatory work, but the major items of work will not begin until on or after June 18th

.  The phasing of the South Kensington Road project will be as follows:
Phase One (approx. June 18 to Aug. 15): Construction Zone from Surria Ct. to Southern City Limits
o Road closed to all traffic at southern city limits
o Road closed to through traffic at Long Lake Road
o Trowbridge Court closed to all traffic.
Phase Two (approx. Aug. 15 to Sept. 30): Construction Zone from Long Lake Rd. to Hillwood Dr.
o Road closed to all traffic at Long Lake Rd.
o Road closed to through traffic at southern city limits
o Trowbridge Court closed to all traffic.

Underground construction will extend from the existing roadway to your property lines so if there are any
plants, shrubs, flowers, etc. that you would not like disturbed please remove them from the right of way or if
the material is reasonable you can contact Hubbell, Roth & Clark, Inc. and they will coordinate with the
Contractor to have those items provided to you or temporarily relocated.
The City is planning on providing frequent e-mail updates to notify residents about the status and progress of
the project to  all residents that are interested in participating in this form of communication.  The City is
requesting that any residents that would like to be informed by e-mail about the status of the project and to be provided with updates, should contact Hubbell, Roth & Clark, Inc. listed below to be included on an e-mail distribution list.

Every effort will be made to minimize the inconvenience and disturbance to all area property owners.  If you
are having some kind of social occasion or event at your home during the time frame of this construction
activity, we will try to accommodate you. Should you have any concerns or questions, please contact Hubbell, Roth & Clark, Inc. (attn: Brad Shepler, P.E.) at 248-454-6356  click here .
