FAQs
S Main Widening Project FAQs
What can we expect during construction?
Motorists can expect traffic barrels, traffic delays, dust, mud, and regular construction noise, etc. The City will monitor the construction area and limit these issues as much as possible. The road will remain open to traffic throughout the duration of the project. The Contractor will be required to stage all materials and equipment within the City right of way or City easement areas only.
Will access to my business be impacted during construction?
The contractor will be required to maintain access to all businesses throughout construction of the project. There may be temporary access restrictions during concrete driveway replacement, only when the concrete is poured. If driveways are wide enough, the contractor will be required to complete one half of the driveway at a time. If there are two driveways to access a business, the driveways will be poured one at a time. For any anticipated temporary closure to your driveway, the Contractor will be required to inform you one day in advance.
Will we receive our United States Postal Service mail and deliveries from FedEx, UPS?
U.S. mail delivery will be maintained throughout the project. If your mail is not delivered, please contact the Hudson Post Office at (330) 650-1993. Normal package delivery services should not be disrupted.
When will I know the Contractor will be working in front of my property?
You will be notified of the anticipated start date once a contractor is selected and an overall schedule is approved.
What will be the normal construction hours for the work?
The Contractor will be allowed to work Monday through Friday between the hours of 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and possibly on Saturdays, if the project falls behind schedule due to weather. No work will be permitted on Sundays or City of Hudson holidays, unless pre-authorized by the City. Some portions of work will be permitted to be completed at night.

Will the City need to acquire any private property?
Only temporary private property impacts are needed for the construction of this project. All property owners who needed to sign a temporary easement document have already been contacted.
Will trees and landscaping be affected?
There are some trees and landscaping that will be removed or affected by the project. Most of the tree removals and landscaping impacts occur on private property and those owners have already been contacted about impacts to their private property as part of the temporary easement process.
Will there be any utility service disruptions during construction?
The City and the Contractor will make every effort to minimize utility disruptions, but we cannot guarantee there will be no accidental breaks or emergency situations. There are no utility service disruptions planned for the project. Any un-planned utility disruptions will be repaired as soon as possible.
