2025 IGH Pavement Management Initiative - Barbara Avenue & 46th Street Area
Construction Update
Today (08/14), utility crews will be connecting homes along Upper 45th Street and the north half of Barbara Avenue to temporary water service. If you are not home at the time of connection, crews will leave a yellow door hanger with a contact number. The contact for temporary water is Cory at 218-259-6785. Please call him if you experience any issues or disruptions with your temporary water service. General information about temporary water is provided below.
Concrete crews are scheduled to be onsite next week. On Monday and Tuesday (08/18 and 08/19), they will be pouring concrete driveways along 47th Street and in the Barbato Court area where curb has already been installed. On Wednesday and Thursday, the crew will transition to pouring curb on the remainder of 47th Street, the south half of Barbara Avenue, and portions of Phase 2 where utility and road work have been completed. Residents with concrete driveways scheduled to be poured should already have received notices about access impacts, while curb impact notices will be delivered later this week or early next week.
Please note that all work is weather-dependent and subject to change.
Temporary Water Service
As part of the ongoing construction project, temporary water service will be provided to maintain uninterrupted water supply during water main replacement. If your property will be connected to temporary water service, you will receive advance written notice with specific details.
Please be aware of the following:
A temporary above-ground water line will be connected to your outside faucet or another suitable location.
You may notice a slight decrease in water pressure or temperature fluctuations during this time.
Temporary water service will remain in place until the new water main is fully installed and tested.
Please do not tamper with or disconnect the temporary line. If you experience any issues with your water service, contact the project representative listed in your notice.
The contractor may ask you to turn off your water service valve inside you home in order to connect to the temporary water service.
