The water construction project that began in mid-November along a portion of downtown Bank Street is expected to be completed by the end of December, except for pavement restoration, “which would need to take place in the spring of 2024,” Public Works Director Brett Frank says.

The project included the installation of 932 linear feet of new 8-inch water main to replace existing 4- and 6-inch water mains on Bank Street from East Main Street to Washington Avenue. 

This updated infrastructure will service the future police station to be built at the corner of Bank Street and Alva Place, Frank said, but is also “a needed infrastructure upgrade of roughly 950 linear feet of water main.”
