Depot Avenue Water Line Project

March 23, 2018 UPDATE – Garney Construction crews completed installation of the 36-inch water main across Second Creek, beneath the W. Fifth Avenue bridge, this week. Crews also continued to work on the bore to install sections of pipe under the railroad tracks in this same area beneath the bridge. Pipe installation has been completed on Van Street; however, a short section of road will remain closed through the middle of next week for roadway restoration. KUB work zones in this area will not interfere with the Knoxville Marathon this weekend. Work Zone Shift Update: Next week, crews will close the section of W. Fifth Avenue between Cooper Street and N. Broadway to through traffic for prep work and installation of a section of 12-inch water main. This section of W. Fifth Avenue will remain closed through mid-April. Crews will also close a two-block section of Morgan Street between E. Depot Avenue and E. Jackson Avenue next week as boring equipment is set up for pipe installation under railroad tracks in this area. This section of Morgan Street will be closed through the end of April 2018.
