Depot Avenue Water Line Project

April 27, 2018 UPDATE – Garney Construction and subcontractor crews completed installation of the 12-inch water main on the section of W. Fifth Avenue between N. Broadway and the N. Gay Street intersection this past week. This section of roadway will remain closed through next week; however, as paving and restoration work is completed. Crews also completed the work to bore in a section of 36-inch water main on Morgan Street, between E. Depot Avenue and E. Jackson Avenue. This two-block section of Morgan Street closed for this work was reopened to traffic as of Friday, April 27. In addition to the paving and restoration on W. Fifth Avenue, crews will set up the bore exit pit and equipment in the off-road utility easement in the private parking lot at the corner of Cooper Street and W. Fifth Avenue. There will be no traffic impacts in the area related to this work. Boring crews also continue to work on installation of sections of pipe under the railroad tracks in the area beneath the W. Fifth Avenue bridge to the west of Cooper Street. Garney crews are expected to resume work in the roadway on Williams Street (between W. Fifth Avenue and W. Depot Avenue) on May 7. The impacts to traffic related to that work will be communicated in advance as details are finalized.
