All lane closures will start at 7 p.m. with lanes re-opening to normal operations by 6 a.m. the following morning. The work on South Florida Avenue will require one through lane and the center turn lane to close. Detours during the construction phases will be clearly marked to least impact vehicular traffic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

City Manager Shawn Sherrouse said, \u201cThis is a continuation of work that we started this week as we rehab older sewer lines in the downtown area.\u00a0 Work will take place overnight with our contractors using a proven lining system that cures in place. An\u00a0epoxy liner is installed on the interior of the pipes and a curing agent activates the liner to adhere to the pipe walls.\u00a0Once fully cured, the lining acts as a new pipeline and extends the lifespan of our system by at least 50 years.\u201d\u00a0 He added, \u201cThis is a very efficient and cost-effective way to maintain lines without tearing up streets and completely replacing a system that was originally installed in the 1920s.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
