Lyons View Pike Project Update

July 12, 2013 UPDATE - Work on the far western end of Zone 3 is wrapping up as existing gas services are being tied over to the new gas main. Installation of the new water main within Zone 4 continues. Once the disinfection and flushing process is complete on the new water main, the contractor will begin tying water services over to the new water main. Customers will be notified in advance of the brief interruption of water service as the individual services are transferred to the new main. As soon as all water main replacement work in Zone 4 is complete, Blalock will begin work to replace the existing sewer and gas lines within Zone 4.

Note: The contractor will not be working this Saturday & Sunday, July 13-14. The disinfection process on the recently installed water line in Zone 4 is underway and will not be ready for confirmatory sample collection and testing until Monday morning, July 15. Work on other utilities in the area can't be started until the new water line is in service, and the old water line is removed, to make room for the other new utilities.

Reminder: Access to all Cherokee Country Club (CCC) facilities is only available from Kingston Pike. Access to CCC from Northshore Drive will not be available until the project is completed.

Lyons View Pike remains closed to through traffic between Lakeshore Park on the west end and Colony Way on the east end. Harley Drive remains barricaded at the Lyons View Pike intersection for the duration of this project. Completion of the project is scheduled for November, 2013, prior to Thanksgiving.
