Utility lines relocation at Route 13 overpass to begin Monday

Utility lines buried under the Route 13 overpass at East Shore Drive in the Town of Ithaca will be relocated beginning Monday, July 20. The work will provide a new path for Bell Atlantic and Time Warner Cable circuits that must be moved before construction of the Cornell University Lake Source Cooling project begins in 1999.

Part of the work will include a hammering noise from boring equipment. This noise will occur during daytime hours only over the next two weeks. Traffic interruptions are not expected, and construction is expected to be completed by early August.

For questions or further information, contact Liz Vastbinder, project coordinator for Cornell University, at (607) 255-9014.
