Project Objective
JEA upgraded the existing water main on Liberty Street between 44th Street East and 43rd Street East and on 43rd Street East from 146 43rd Street East to the dead end. This project will increase water pressure and provide improved system reliability. This work also included the installation of a new fire hydrant.
Construction Conditions
Construction will occur in the City’s rights of way, streets and easements. There will be times when the 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.
Please observe all construction signs, detours, and general directions provided by the JEA crews working onsite. We apologize in advance for delays caused by this work.
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 main has been installed, 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.
