Picketville - Old Kings Road Electric Improvement Project

Estimated Dates & Work Schedule

Anticipated Start Date: 2019-04-08
Anticipated End Date: 2019-12-06

NOTE: Anticipated start and end dates are highly subject to change. 

Project Objective

JEA replaced the main electric feeder line that serves the Picketville - Old Kings Road neighborhood. When completed, this work will increase the amperage capacity of the power line, thereby reducing chances of overloading the circuit which can lead to unplanned power outages.  

The new upgraded feeder will be able to handle three times the capacity as the old feeder. In addition, JEA replaced any old or deteriorated power poles along the project route as well as installed new conductor, trip savers and hook switches which  also provide for better power quality and reliability.  

Construction Conditions

JEA will leave the old power poles in place until AT&T and Comcast change their facilities over to the new poles. Once this work occurs, JEA will return to remove the old poles.

Any roads, curb, grass, driveway, sidewalk, or sod unintentionally damaged during construction will be replaced at the end of the project.
