Hiawatha Street Water Main Improvement Project
![](https://www.jea.com/uploadedimages/Images/ConstructionProjectDefaultBanner.jpg)
Estimated Dates & Work Schedule
Anticipated End Date: 2017-06-30
Project Objective
JEA will be replacing and upgrading the existing water main on Hiawatha Street from McGirts Boulevard to Iroquois Avenue.
This work will also include the installation of new individual water services (to the property line) and one (1) new fire hydrant. When completed, this project will increase water pressure, and provide better system reliability.
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 48 hours prior to any planned outages. Residents may also experience a brief (10 to 15 minutes) outage while crews transfer customers 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.
Even Better Power Reliability
JEA's state-of-the-art technology identifies customers and neighborhoods in need of electric reliability improvements.
