Intersection of Battleground Avenue and West Cornwallis Drive Lane Closures Set for August 20

On Thursday, August 20, the intersection of Battleground Avenue and West Cornwallis Drive will have multiple lane closures overnight from 9 pm to 5 am the following morning, due to water valve repairs. One lane in each direction will remain open through the intersection.

All water customers affected have been notified. The work may cause minor traffic delays. See the map below for the location.

If you notice discoloration or cloudy water coming from your tap after the repairs, run cold water for a few minutes through a faucet without an aerator, such as an outside spigot or the bathtub, until clear.

Signs and traffic cones will be in place, and motorists are encouraged to use alternate routes to avoid the area. Dates and times may change due to weather or last-minute changes in the work schedule.
