West 16th Street Sewer Improvement Project

Estimated Dates & Work Schedule

Anticipated Start Date: 2018-08-28

Project Objective

JEA replaced a portion of a sanitary sewer main that reached the end of its service life located on West 16th Street between Perry Street and Pearl Street North. Sewer main breaks can potentially cause minor sewer back-ups and roadway issues. 

Construction Conditions

Construction occurred in the City’s streets, rights of way and easements. For the safety of our crews and the general public, a portion of West 16th Street was closed between Perry Street and Pearl Street North. This work required the removal of ground water with pump systems prior to construction. 

Restoration of Project Area

Restoration of the project area will begin after the sewer line has been repaired, tested and cleared for use. Upon completion of the project, existing pavement, grass, curb, gutter, driveways or sidewalks affected during construction will be restored.
