Sewer pipe construction to close Western Avenue

5/8/2007

Western Avenue will be closed at Field Avenue for three days beginning tomorrow while a sewer pipe is laid across the street as part of an ongoing construction project, the city transportation division said.

Traffic on Western, which is part of State Rt. 2, will be detoured via South Avenue between Broadway and the Anthony Wayne Trail until the pipe installation is completed on Friday, officials said.

Sewer construction will continue afterward along Field until about May 18.

Field is closed block-by-block while the sewer pipe is installed between Segur Avenue and Broadway.
