The latest City of Lake Worth newsletter, Worth Noting, was recently published and contains a lot of helpful information about water line replacements. Use this link to read the newsletter; if you don't receive the newsletter sign up using this link and it will be delivered to your email inbox.

Here is an excerpt from the news:

"Lake Worth has started a 6 year project to replace 22 miles of the 2″ watermains throughout the city. The new water infrastructure will use 4-inch, 6-inch or larger PVC pipe which is durable, clean and long-lasting. They will be able to move greater volumes of water with increased pressure at the tap—think Happy Showers!

• Year 1 of the water infrastructure project has been designed by professional engineers, bid & awarded for construction.
• Year 2: Currently under design. Construction should commence in 2017.

     Improving infrastructure is expensive, and dividing the project across six years will allow the City to make the most cost-effective decisions about design, bidding and construction.
     Residents may experience minor traffic delays during construction, as many of the water mains are located under roads. The City will continue to inform residents about where and when construction will be taking place ahead of time."
