Building demolition
August 10, 2021 to October 2021: Demolition of the buildings will begin, which will have noise, vibratory and dust impacts to the surrounding area. Noise will comply with the City of Menlo Park noise ordinance for construction projects and dust will be mitigated by using the appropriate amount of water to spray active work areas.
UNDERWAY
Foundations and superstructure work
November 2021 to April 2022: Foundations and superstructure will be excavated, poured and erected which will mainly cause noise and vibratory impacts. Impacts will be caused by heavy machinery and cranes used to erect the building, as well as steel on steel strikes to get all of the superstructure connections in place in preparation for final welding.
PLANNED
Building interiors and sitework
May 2022 to January 2023: Building Interiors and sitework will be ongoing inside and out of the building superstructure. Sitework may have noise and dust impacts as we give the site its final shape and pour concrete sidewalks and asphalt roads.
PLANNED
Beechwood Parking Lot work
Summer 2022: Beechwood Parking Lot work will be targeted for summer 2022 to minimize the impacts to students and teachers as we update the existing parking lot with new utility infrastructure and fresh asphalt.
