South Main Street Upcoming Closures – Area Construction Begins June 1

Beginning on Monday, June 1, DCI Shires will begin completing the last segments of new sewer construction for the Cedar Run/South Main Sewer project. Construction work will occur on and across South Main Street between King Street and Ellet Road over the next several months and will involve intermittent lane closures of both northbound and southbound lanes of South Main Street. During the closures:

  • One lane of traffic will be maintained in both directions at all times.
  • Detour signs will be in place to direct traffic to alternate access points for CVS and Dunkin' while work occurs in the vicinity of their business entrances.

This work is expected to last approximately two months. After all work is complete, the road will be milled, repaved, and re-striped.

When complete, this project will have replaced approximately 4,500 feet of 60-year-old vitrified clay pipe with larger PVC pipe to reduce rainfall-derived infiltration and inflow to the sewers and to accommodate continued growth within the Town.

The northbound left-turn lane from Main Street to Eheart Street SW will also be removed. Eheart Street SE will remain open to two-way vehicular travel. This connection provides important infrastructure for the biking community that does not currently exist.
