Water main and service line replacement project on Evans Avenue and Galapago Street

A water main and service line replacement project is scheduled to begin on Tuesday, September 4 on Evans Avenue from Santa Fe Drive to Platte River Drive. It will then continue on Galapago Street from Evans Avenue to Warren Avenue. Letters have been distributed to all residents and businesses in the project area and reminders will be distributed a few days before the project begins. Denver Water anticipates the project will take about two months to complete.
 
Crews will do their best to complete the project as scheduled; however, projects are occasionally delayed by unmarked underground utilities, weather and emergency water main breaks. Water service emergencies, such as main breaks in other parts of Denver Water’s system may take precedence over this project. The crew may leave at a moment’s notice to work on those emergencies and may not return the following day.
 
As pipe replacement projects occur in your district, Denver Water will send your office notice that a letter or door hanger was distributed to customers in the project area. 
 
All permits and traffic plans have been approved by the city.
 
Denver Water crews install or replace an average of 60,000 feet of pipe a year. Additional information on pipe replacement projects can be found at www.denverwater.org/pipes
