Hoffman Construction--Reconstruction of University Av, Segoe to Shorewood Blvd

The project involves resurfacing and laying of large stormwater pipes to decrease flooding.

Our concerns as of 6/7/10:

• At virtually all the ten construction entrances, the gravel tracking pads were inadequate, not up to the required 50' length.  General traffic was traversing some of these unprotected muddy areas.  Photos of tracking pads here.
• Mud was being tracked far off-site.  I followed conspicuous mud as far as the highway 12 on-ramp in Middleton, six miles away.  It came from muddy water dripping from trucks, not actual tire tracks. Slide show of tracks here.  Map
• Sediment was flowing off-site at 3918 University Av.  This was a minor breach, but should be fixed. Photo
