College Avenue Water Main Replacement Project Begins June 9

Construction to install new water main pipes

Efforts to improve the watershed system throughout DeKalb County continue Monday, June 9, with the launch of the College Avenue Water Main Replacement Project. Crews will replace approximately 7,100 linear feet of ductile iron water pipe between Sam Crossings and Lakeshore Drive. 

This water improvement project is expected to last approximately six months (June 2025 to December 2025), barring any weather delays. 

This project is part of DeKalb County’s $4.27 billion capital improvement program to improve capacity and service of the watershed systems serving the community. 

Evening construction hours will be from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m., Sunday through Friday, excluding major holidays. An increase in construction-related noise and traffic during work hours should be expected.
