The $5.1M Black Pearl Group B project began construction in December 2020. Contractor Infinity Construction is installing sewer, water and drain lines on the block of 100 to 500 Millaudon and the 7700 and 7900 blocks of Dominican, which will continue for the next few months. Water main pressure testing will continue throughout Dominican and Millaudon streets during these installations.

Palmisano Construction completed a substantial amount of the project’s waterline work on the Lakeview North Group C infrastructure improvement project during the summer. Crews have completed tie-ins on many streets, including Milne Street and Canal Boulevard. Work is also progressing on sidewalks and driveway aprons. Currently, crews are working on Mouton and Milne Streets, as well as on the areas adjacent to Mount Carmel Academy.

Work on the Magazine Street Phase II infrastructure project is set to begin December 2021 immediately following the underground utility relocation work being performed by Entergy.

Boh Bros construction crews, in close collaboration with the Department of Public Works and  Sewerage and Water Board plan to begin the added scope on Arabella Street as a part of the $7.3M Audubon Group A  infrastructure improvement project. The 900-1100 blocks of Arabella will be fully reconstructed to include new drainage and waterlines. This work is expected to be complete within 60 days, weather permitting. The added scope of work extends the project to January 2022.

The Breakwater Drive improvement project temporarily demobilized over the summer while awaiting FEMA approvals on enhanced plans for the parking lot and relocation of lighting. Approvals are expected to be finalized in the coming days, at which time work will resume. The project is still expected to be complete by winter 2022.
