Fruitville Pike Water Main Replacement

Mar 11, 2025

3/11/25
Update on the water main project and new service lines: Obviously with some of the extreme cold weather in February, the schedule has been delayed, but it is nearing completion. The contractor has completed the installation of the new 8-inch ductile iron main along the north side of Fruitville Pike.

The contractor is still looking to finalize the schedule, but changeover of water service from the existing 2” galvanized main existing main to the newly installed main will take place over the next several weeks. New Service lines will be run to the homes on the north of Fruitville Pike first and then the following to the homes on the south side of Fruitville Pike.

This project will improve water flow, reduce the risk of lead exposure from older materials, and provide better water pressure to homes in the area at no cost to you. If your existing service line has galvanized materials, it will be replaced with suitable material to remove any future risk.

Stay tuned for updates closer to the date and with specifics about any temporary service disruptions.
