Supplemental alert: overnight excavation at intersection of Atlantic and Sixth avenues

AtlanticYards.com, not Empire State Development (which usually circulates them), today sent a  Supplemental Report to the previously issued two-week Construction Alert:
LIRR Yard Activities Block 1120 & 1121
New Information: In connection with work that will be taking place in the yard, the contractor will be performing test pits (small area excavations) within the vicinity of the Atlantic Avenue and 6th Avenue intersection. The purpose of these test pits are to determine the location of underground structures and utilities. The excavations will be plated and/or patched over at the end of each work day.

Work will be performed in accordance with DOT permits which require that the work be performed at night (10 pm to 6 am). Work will be performed, between the time frame of March 24, 2014 and April 23, 2014, with the initial work taking place during the overnight hours of March 25-27th. No weekend work is contemplated at this time.
Part of the work will impact the Atlantic Avenue bus stop at the southeast corner of the intersection of 6th Avenue. Work dates will be coordinated with Arena operations.
