LYNCHBURG, Va. – Beginning Monday, April 11, and continuing for approximately 45 days, Monday - Friday during daylight hours, Lynchburg Water Resources (LWR) will work with Prism Contractors & Engineers to rehabilitate approximately 12,000 linear feet of sanitary/storm sewer pipes and 30 manholes throughout the City via trenchless liner installation methods. The purpose of the project is to protect and improve Lynchburg’s sewer system while helping prevent costly sewer backups, overflows, and digging repairs that can result if left unmaintained. (NOTE: LWR is asking that personal vehicles and other items be removed from these sanitary and storm sewer areas ahead of time prior to the Monday, April 11 start date.)
Work will take place on or near properties at the following locations:
|
2nd Street |
Circle Road |
Hickory Hill Drive |
Mimosa Drive |
Residents at these locations may see crews accessing the sewer system through manholes and inlets on or near their property. There should be no disturbance of personal property. Temporary traffic control setups may be expected periodically in several work areas.
The contractor crews are following social distancing guidance from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and have been instructed on how to perform their work and minimize exposure to COVID-19.
For more information, call Lynchburg Water Resources at (434) 455-4250.
