Anticipated Start Date: 2015-01-06
Anticipated End Date: 2015-03-31

This project has been completed. Below is the information provided to customers prior to the project start date.

Roads Affected

1st Street, Palmetto Street, Phelps Street

Project Objective

JEA will be replacing and upgrading the existing water main on Palmetto Street from Phelps Street to 1st Street.

This work will also include the installation of new individual water services (to the property line) and four (4) new fire hydrants. When completed, this project will increase water pressure, and provide better system reliability.

Construction Conditions

Construction will be done in the City’s rights of way 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.

Planned 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 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 affectedd during construction will be returned to its pre-construction condition.
