Estimated Dates & Work Schedule

Anticipated Start Date: 2016-03-09
Anticipated End Date: 2016-06-30

This project has been completed. The below information was provided to customers prior to the project start date. 


Project Objective 

JEA will be replacing 1100 feet of the existing 2-inch water main and upgrading to a 6-inch water main on Betsy Drive from Hugh Edwards Drive to Lucente Drive. This work will also include installation of one (1) new fire hydrant. When completed, this project will increase water pressure and provide improved system reliability. 

Roads Affected

Betsy Drive, Hugh Edwards Drive, Lucente Drive

Conditions During Construction

Construction will occur in the City’s rights of way, streets and easements. There will be times when your road will have limited access while the water main is being installed.  JEA will maintain the flow of traffic, although residents may experience some minor delays.

Water Outages 

Some customers will experience minor interruptions to their water service.  JEA will notify customers 24 hours prior to any planned outages. Residents may also experience a brief (10 to 15 minutes) outage while crews transfer your home from the old water service to the new water service.

Restoration of Project Area

Restoration of the project area will begin once the water lines are installed and have been tested and cleared for use. Upon completion of the project, any existing pavement, grass, driveways or sidewalks affected during construction will be returned to its pre-construction condition.
