Once the concrete is poured, it will be blocked off until it is cured (hardened), which takes approximately 7 days.

City contractors are completing the necessary testing on the newly installed watermain. They hope to begin removing residents from the temporary connections to the new line later this week, and early next week. Please allow yourself extra time, should they need to close part of the road due to the installation of these water services.

Crews are planning to install new curbing along 3rd St. and 10th Ave. in early July. Please do not walk on the freshly poured concrete for 24 hour or park on the freshly poured concrete for 7 days.

Planned work in this area will increase as both the City of North St. Pau’s contractors and the contractors working on the North High project take advantage of the time between the end of the school year and the start of the summer term. Contractors will create three pits along 2^nd St. as they work on the water line. We plan to have at least one lane of traffic open on 2^nd St. at all times. They are planning to replace the pipe on 2^nd St. early next week, then replace the pipe along 10^th Ave., and then on 3^rd St. such that likely all of the mainline pipe would be replaced by the end of next week (6/10).  Once the watermain is replaced, services would be connected to the new pipe.  Contractors have already started installing temporary water lines and they will begin connecting them to your services late next week (6/10), or early the following week (6/13). Once the temporary lines are in place you may need to run your tap for a while to achieve full pressure.  

Contractors for the North High project will also be working to reclaim the west parking lot of the high school, and 2^nd St. south of 10^th Ave, this Friday (6/3).  They are also preparing to connect new water, gas and sanitary sewer connections to the City’s infrastructure next week. There will be an increase in truck traffic in the area. Thanks in advance for your understanding and patience.

All of our work is dependent on the weather and our schedules may change.

Zone 2
City contractors will begin prepping temporary water lines along 2^nd St. next week. Temporary water services will not be connected until all required water testing is complete. No roadways will be disturbed until classes at North High have ended for the year.  Once school is out, contractors will create some temporary bursting pits for access to the City’s watermain. These “burst pits” will limit access on 2^nd Street while the watermain is being worked on, and be patched once the watermain work is complete. 

Access on 10th Ave. and 1st Street is anticipated to be open while work on 2nd St. is being conducted
