Notice of Construction: Second Street Corridor

/

Starting September 30, 2020, the Frankfort Plant Board Water Department will begin construction of a new water main along Second Street. Construction will begin at the intersection with Capital Ave. and end at Taylor Ave. Crews will replace deteriorating main water lines with a 12-inch main that will provide better water quality and fire protection in the south Frankfort area. This project is part of the Tiger Grant.

Until all work is completed on this project, your cooperation will be appreciated in order to work safely and to speed up the construction process. Detours will be in place at times to prevent delays; however, some minor delays may be unavoidable. Please proceed with caution through the work area. As with any construction project, the timeframe is dependent upon the other underground utilities that the crews encounter once the project begins.

Work on Second Street will be performed a block at a time and there will be lane closures during construction and detours put in place. Business owners and residents will have access to their property during construction and emergency vehicles will not be impeded.

We realize construction of the new line and the service relocations will be an inconvenience, and we want to assure you that the street will be restored to normal condition.  It is FPB’s plan to minimize all impact to you and your property. 

If you have any questions, please call the FPB Water Department at 352-4433.
