Leggett Building Project Activity Update – February 5, 2021

Dear Neighbors,

Thank you for your interest in the Leggett Building construction project at the Takoma Park/Silver Spring Campus. We will strive to keep our neighbors informed about significant construction events with this weekly email notification.

Upcoming events are listed below:

• Utility work
  Utility installation is underway. This involves layout, saw cutting, pavement removal, and earthwork activities. These activities will include new equipment and materials deliveries, and the use of dumpsters for material removal. 
• Earthwork
  Earthwork is underway. This involves salvaging and removing existing site furnishing, demolition of existing hardscape and the tennis court retaining wall, layout for the support of excavation (SOE) for the new building and the dewatering system. These activities will include new equipment and materials deliveries, and the use of dumpsters for material removal. 
• Demolition
  In the next two weeks, structural demolition could kick off, meaning the exterior walls may be removed and heavy machinery will be on site. For more information on our noise mitigation procedures, visit the project website.
• Site Logistics
  Existing fencing will be relocated to install the second construction entrance along Fenton Street, which will facilitate the flow of traffic on site and help to limit the use of backup alarms. The continued use of construction fencing will provide a barrier to ensure the safety of the site. 

Please visit the project’s website at montgomerycollege.edu/tpss-design for additional information. You may contact us with questions at community@montgomerycollege.edu or call the project hotline at 800-879-9879.

Thank you,
The Montgomery College Team
