UPDATE Ravenoaks Subdivision Road Reconstruction Project: April 15, 2025 Re: UPDATE TO RAVENOAKS SUBDIVISION RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT Dear Town of Oregon Resident, The Town of Oregon has approved improvements to your neighborhood roads: Blue Heron Way, Gray Owl Court, Knollwood Drive, Onwentsia Trail, Partridge Hill Drive, Quail Court, Ravenoaks Trail and Twin Oaks Court. (Ahwahnee Ct. and Trail Ridge Court were paved more recently and are in good condition, so they will not require any improvements at this time.) The pulverizing and paving is planned to start Monday April 21. It will start with pulverizing and grading, which will take about a week to work through the neighborhood. Then on Monday April 28 paving will start, which will take about 4 days. Schedule is subject to change due to weather or other conditions. We will try to keep the website updated with changes.  Construction will typically take place M-F 7 am to 6 pm, but may extend beyond those hours, especially if time has been lost to rain days or other conditions. Your patience is appreciated during this ~2 week period, which will cause some inconvenience as the work and equipment will have a heavy presence during the weekday, and possibly on the weekend. You can possibly expect dust from the pulverizing and grading process, and you may notice particles of pulverized pavement temporarily tracked into your driveway from your vehicles.  The pulverizing and paving process may cause some disruption as you enter and exit your driveway if they are working in that location. Both the pulverizing and paving are moving operations, and they move relatively quickly, so it likely won’t be more than 10-15 min that your access is delayed. With some planning, you can look down the road to see if they are coming toward your driveway, so you can leave before or after they pass by your driveway. Avoid the active construction area as much as possible, both for your sake and for the sake of the construction crew. Each time a car passes, they will need to slow down or stop operations, prolonging the duration of the project. If you see the operation is happening to the south of your driveway, use the north access to Sayles Trail if possible (unless your driveway is very close to Sun Valley Parkway). If you see the operation is happening to the north of your driveway, use the south access to Sun Valley Parkway if possible (unless your driveway is very close to Sun Valley Parkway). Allow extra time to get to your destination, in case you have to take the far access or there are cars backed up due to the flagging operation, which can only allow 1 lane open at a time.  If you must pass through the active construction area, please drive slowly and be considerate of the workers for their safety. A smile and a wave is always appreciated, as they are doing their best to do a good job for you. If you have a flexible schedule, please try to avoid coming or going during the popular morning and evening hours when buses are present and people are coming and going to work and school. There will be flaggers to always allow people and emergency vehicles to get through. However, “through” traffic, is discouraged. If you can use another route to avoid the construction operation, please do so.  School buses will always be allowed through the construction zone to drop off and pick up students. Please use extra caution if your child is getting dropped off or picked up near the construction operation.  For questions on construction or traffic control, please contact Dustin Rondorf, Payne & Dolan at (608) 535-2463 mobile or drondorf@walbecgroup.com If you need assistance from the Town during the project, please reach out to Abel Schultz, Public Works Road Patrolman, at (608) 438-2397 mobile or aschultz@townoforegonwi.gov Please sign up for Town of Oregon news to stay up to date on this project and other Town activities.
