Central Water Treatment Plant Update

Water Main Pipe to Be Installed Along North Frontage Road

Construction crews are drilling for a water main pipe installation this week along North Frontage Road, from Westview Drive to State Street, as part of the Central Water Treatment Plant and Raw Watermain Project. The installation will take place in two segments. While North Frontage Road will remain accessible, traffic may be limited to one lane during active construction. The contractor will implement flagger operations as needed to facilitate safe passage of vehicles; the road will be closed to through traffic during the installation process.
