Project Overview
This project is scheduled for August 2024 to the end of March 2025, with restoration in the spring.
Crews will install more than one mile of new water main in the following areas:
- St. Mary’s River, Winchester Road Civic Association: Babcock Drive, Scotsdale Drive, Chepequah Lane, and Godrey Road.
- Bluffton Road: From Old Trail Road to Interlaken Drove.
- Lakewood Park Neighborhood: Homes in the 6300-6400 block of Maplewood Circle and Bluffton have new connections to the main in front of their homes instead of in their backyards.
The area has had over 30 water main breaks in the last 20 years. There are currently cast iron mains in place. These were standard pipes used in the mid-20th century, but with time they become susceptible to corrosion and breaks. The new water main pipes will be high density polyethylene pipes. They are flexible and durable. New hydrants and service taps will also be placed following the water main installation.
Check back frequently for project updates and traffic changes.
