Emergency Repair of Steam Line on Comstock Avenue Scheduled This Week

Facilities Services, CenTrio Energy and a local contractor have begun an emergency repair of the steam line located on the west side of Comstock Avenue just north of the intersection at Euclid Avenue.

During the repair, there are no planned interruptions to building utility services in the area (domestic water, sewer, power or communication). However, the work will require a closure of a section of sidewalk and detour of pedestrian traffic at the two adjacent crosswalks to the east side of Comstock. Additionally, flaggers may be periodically provided should portions of the vehicular travel lane be required to complete the work. The work began on Monday, Oct. 9. The entire repair, including restoration, is expected to be completed this week.

Please contact Chuck Brooks, associate director for project management, at 315.729.4383 or cpbrooks@syr.edu, with any questions or concerns.

For everyone’s safety, we encourage you to remain alert in work areas, watch for route changes, heed construction flagger directions/employees at work and follow pedestrian signs.

Delays in the proposed work may occur as a result of weather and/or unforeseen circumstances. In the event that there is a significant delay, updates will be provided.
