South Philly streets to be paved this week!

admin , , , , min read

Watch for signs and be sure to move your car if you’re parked on one of these streets!

Say goodbye to dodging raised manhole covers and bumping around on uneven asphalt!

Late last week we received news from the Streets Department that streets in South Philly which have been “milled” for the past two weeks (or more) will be paved this week.

According to their message, “Streets listed below are scheduled for paving, a final phase in the resurfacing process. Operations for the paving will be performed during the day hours, between 7AM and 4PM.  The anticipated time to complete the paving of each street segment varies and is dependent on the length and width of the street. Work is being performed by City crews.”

The streets to be paved include:

Blocks Street From To
1700 – 2700 9th St Oregon  Ave Morris St
1600 – 1700 10th St Tasker St Moore St
700 – 730 10th St Fitzwater St Bainbridge St
1600 – 2700 11th St Oregon  Ave Passyunk  Ave
1300 – 2000 13th St Snyder Ave Tasker St
100 – 900 Dickinson St 9th St Front St
Unit Front St Snyder Ave Oregon  Ave
2100 Front St Intersection Shunk St
100 – 1400 Jackson  St Broad  St Front  St
2400 Swanson St Oregon Ave Ritner St
Unit Tasker St Water St Dead End East
1700 – 2700 9th St Oregon  Ave Morris St
Unit Front St Snyder Ave Oregon  Ave

If you park one of these streets, watch out for temporary ‘No Parking’ signs posted in advance of the paving work.  Streets department cautions that, “Residents are urged to move their cars from the work sites when temporary ‘No Parking’ signs are posted, so that vehicles are not towed.  In the event a car is towed, please contact your local Police District to determine its location.  Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling around the work areas.”

Finally, if you live along South 11th Street between Oregon Avenue and Passyunk Avenue, say goodbye to the trolley tracks.  They’ll be buried under the new asphalt.
