The Evansville Water and Sewer Utility will begin sewer rehabilitation work impacting traffic on the N. First Avenue corridor in three distinct areas over an upcoming two-week period. The contractor, Granite Inliner, will perform lining operations in the following work zone areas:
- N. First Avenue – Kratz Avenue to W. Campground Road (2-3 days)
- N. First Avenue – Allens Lane to Fairway Drive (1-2 days)
- N. First Avenue – W. Tennessee Street to W. Morgan Avenue (2-3 days)
For each location, traffic will be restricted to one lane in each direction as both passing lanes will be closed to create a secure zone for the workers. All side road traffic approaching First Avenue through active zones will also be required to turn right only. The work is anticipated to last up to the duration indicated with each work location above and generally occurring between October 28 and November 11, weather permitting.
Due to the advanced notice and date range, a reminder will be communicated through social media as the scheduled work approaches or requires updating. Information will be posted on the Evansville Water and Sewer Utility Facebook page and the @EWSUtility Twitter feed.
