Construction Details

Noise and Dust: Residents can expect some noise and dust during the construction period.

​

Varying Work Times: Work will be carried out at different times, including some night work to minimize disruption.

​

Road or Lane Closures: There will be road or lane closures to accommodate the construction activities. Alternative routes will be provided and marked appropriately.

​

Narrow Roads: Clarksburg's narrow roads will pose particular challenges, but the project team is prepared to handle these difficulties.

​

Lead Service Line Replacements: Some buildings and houses in the Downtown area will need their lead service lines replaced. Read about what to do if your service lines need replaced. 

​

Periodic Water Outages: There will be periodic, brief water outages as the work progresses.

​

Communication

The project team is committed to consistent and widespread communication with residents. Updates will be provided through the project website, Facebook, phone calls, newspaper updates, and home mailers.

​

A project inspector will be available for daily construction oversight and to serve as a public point of contact.

​

Funding

The project is largely funded by federal and state funds, with no impact on customer bills as rates have already been established for this project.
