The City Engineering Department has released updated information on the water main replacement project going in the downtown area.

On Friday, March 1, crews will be working on Jefferson Avenue between Banker and Fifth Streets and the work will require closure of that block. 

Crews will also be working on the block between Front Street and Banker Street. That will require closure of the westbound lane of Jefferson Avenue.

Another crew will be working at the intersection of Jefferson Avenue and Fourth Street. Fourth Street will be closed from Jefferson Avenue to the entrances to the County Parking Lot. The work on Fourth Street will require a water service interruption for customers on Fourth Street between Jefferson Avenue and St. Anthony Avenue. When the water is turned on, the affected water customers will be under a boil order until further notice.

If there are any questions, please call or text (217) 821-7731 or email at gkoester@effinghamil.com.
