Thank you for your patience and understanding while work progresses on this project. Every provision will be taken to quickly and efficiently complete the work.

HOW YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD MAY BE IMPACTED:

  • During construction, anticipate temporary inconveniences. Please exercise caution in the work zone and note that:
  • Water service to some properties will be provided by a two-inch highline pipe that will run along the curb. Your water service will not be interrupted.
  • Residents and businesses will have access to properties, but parking restrictions, street closures and detours will be required.
  • “No Parking” signs will be displayed 48 hours in advance of any restriction. Cars parked in violation of the signs will be TOWED.
  • If we encounter rain or inclement weather, paving operations will be delayed.

NORMAL HOURS AND DAYS OF OPERATION:

This Capital Improvement Program (CIP) project will replace about four miles of old, deteriorating, cast iron water mains with new Polyvinyl-Chloride (PVC) pipes. PVC pipes offer improved service reliability and a longer service life. Improvements also include new valves, fire hydrants and installation of curb ramps that facilitate access for persons with disabilities. In addition, streets that have been excavated as part of this work will be slurry sealed as phases are completed. Any areas of vegetation or landscaping that are affected will be replaced. Construction of this infrastructure project is expected to last about three years.
