Updated Message for Residents:

The first phase of paving is about to start; paving will be done in two phases.
First, a rough course is installed as the base.
At a later date, the actual wearing course is installed on top of that base.
Since we cannot pinpoint the exact days of paving at this time, we ask that you adhere to all parking restrictions for the remainder of the project.

PLEASE DO NOT PARK ON STREETS TO BE PAVED DURING WORK HOURS.

Please remove vehicles from the streets between 7am and 5pm, Monday through Friday, until the project is completed.

As always, thank you for your patience and understanding.

Due to the Labor Day holiday, Ben Avon’s scheduled Waste Management trash and recycling collection will be provided 1 day late. Please ensure your containers are available for service.

Here are some steps you can take to prepare for your service:

• Best practice is to place your container out the night before where allowed or by early morning on your service day
• Keep your container accessible. Parked vehicles and other obstacles may prevent us from servicing your container

Please go to the Ben Avon calendar, http://benavon.com/calendar/, for the schedule.

Have a safe and happy Labor Day!

There will be no parking on the affected streets during this construction where signs are posted. All vehicles parked on the affected streets will be towed at the owners’ expense. Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation.

During the paving project, two major routes into the Borough will be closed at times: Dickson Avenue and Brighton Avenue. There will be times when one of these main routes will be limited or closed (great care will be made to ensure they are not closed at the same time). Along with the contractor, we will do our best to alert all residents of when these roads will be closed or limited.

For Ben Avon specific questions you may call the Ben Avon Public Works department at 412.761.5311.

As always, thank you so much for your patience and understanding as we continue to restore Ben Avon for the future.
