Project Overview

This fall, the first phase of a major water main replacement project will begin along Oatfield Road. The work will be completed in three phases, spanning 2025-2027. The first phase project area is bound by Aldercrest Rd. to the north and Loeffelman Rd. to the south.

What We'll Do

Throughout the project, we’ll replace more than 16,000 feet of water mainline pipes, increasing their diameter from 6 to 8 inches for greater capacity. We'll also upgrade from cast iron to more durable, corrosion-resistant ductile iron for greater long-term service reliability.

The result: Replacing aged pipes reduces service interruptions due to main breaks, increases capacity, and helps control long-term costs.

Budget: $8,060,000 investment across all three phases

Potential Project Impacts

We try to minimize disruptions as much as possible; however, affected areas may experience:

• Temporary water outages (those affected will receive advance notice)
• Traffic delays and temporary road or lane closures
• Heavy equipment and materials in the work area
• Some noise and dust during construction hours

On-site crews will communicate directly with home or business owners about any direct impacts to their property.

If you're experiencing impacts beyond what's typical for construction, please contact us directly.

Project Schedule

Schedule Lookahead

Pre-construction work has started, and you may see crews throughout the project area. We will update this page with the schedule lookahead when available.

Private Improvements in Public Right-of-Way

In some locations, crews must work outside the public right-of-way in areas called easements or within undeveloped public right-of-way. Work crews will coordinate with homeowners with easements in or near their property.
