Cement concrete curbs will be added in March to the Apache Trail median from Ironwood Drive to Ocotillo Drive under a $380,000 contract approved by the Apache Junction City Council.
The council voted unanimously Feb. 7 to approve a contract with Viasun Corp. for the construction of curbing for $345,520.75 plus a 10% contingency for unforeseen change orders in the amount of $34,552.07, for a total project cost not to exceed $380,072.82. This work is allocated in the current fiscal year Highway User Revenue Fund budget.
The work, which includes curbs and drainage scuppers, is to be done in the middle of March. It is the fourth of five phases to add curbing to 2 miles of Apache Trail from Meridian to Idaho Road, Public Works Manager Shane Kiesow said at the meeting.
