Brulez Trenching LLC is currently working on Contract A, which extends from Nolan Point to Idyll Acres Road. The contractor has approximately 30 remaining connections from Lakewood Beach to Idyll Acres. Contract A is expected to be completed by the end of July. The Idyll Acres lift station is still in fabrication and may be up to 10 weeks for delivery. During the past month, 27 connections were completed, bringing the total number of completed connections to approx. 185. Frequent rainfall every three to four days has affected cleanup operations. The overall project schedule remains well ahead of the original timeline. Based on the updated schedule, the project may be completed by April 2027.
