NJ American Water To Start Work On 2/13 In Arbor Street/ Sutton Lane & Sylvester Street Area

New Jersey American Water (NJAW) is preparing to replace approximately 10,000 feet of aging 6-inch cast iron water main that was installed in the 1920s with new 8- and 12-inch ductile iron main. Weather permitting, work hours will be from 7am to 5pm, Monday through Friday. The project is expected to be completed within approximately 5 months, and final street restoration will be completed in late summer or early fall of 2023.NJAW will also be installing meter pits at the curb area (in their right of way) of properties where none exist. After installation, all that will be visible is a 15-inch circular cover that will be flush with the ground. The project represents a critical investment for the company in support of their commitment to provide customers with safe, reliable water service.

More information is located in the following: NJAW Water Main Replacement Project Information.
