Two Phase Johnson City Water And Wastewater Project Now Underway

In Johnson City, a two phase downtown water and wastewater system improvement project is now underway. The project includes the rehabilitation of more than 2500 feet of sewer line and over 500 feet of water line installation. Phase one involves the rehabilitation of the large sewer line running under Buffalo Street from the Cherry Street intersection through the South Roan Street intersection and under Water Street. Construction activities will result in a variety of impacts to pedestrian and vehicle traffic including road closures and loss of some parallel parking spaces along Buffalo Street. Phase two of the project is planned to start January 1st and will conclude in March of 2021.
