Overview
The City of Miami Beach receives its drinking water from the mainland via four transmission mains. Water enters San Marco Island via parallel water mains that run north and south of the Venetian bridges from the Miami-Dade Water and Sewer Department (MDWASD). This project will replace a segment of the water mains in four phases. These mains are in poor condition, and the city is replacing both the water and sewer mains on the Venetian Causeway between Belle Isle and Rivo Alto.
What's Happening
The Venetian Causeway Water and Sewer Main Replacement project will replace the old main and bridge crossing with new pipes that will be installed underground. Work will be completed by the contractor David Mancini and Sons, Inc.
