Iroquois Avenue Waterline & Roadway Replacement Project
Iroquois Avenue Waterline & Roadway Replacement Project is tentatively scheduled to start on 07/21/2025. SD Ireland Brothers Corporation will be replacing the existing waterline along Iroquois Avenue from South Summit Street to the Orchard Terrace intersection. In addition, the project includes the full reconstruction of the roadway from South Summit Street to Orchard Terrace, as well as the repaving of the roadway from Orchard Terrace to Park Street.
Throughout construction, we will be sending out daily emails about the progress and anticipated schedule as they may relate to access and disruptions to the adjacent properties. An initial email will be sent during the week of July 14th as a reminder of the July 21st start date.

Today, the Contractor added gravel to disturbed areas in the open travel lane along Iroquois Avenue. They also installed the piping for the new water services to 114 Iroquois Avenue, 115 Iroquois Avenue, and 117 Iroquois Avenue.

The final connection will be made once the new waterline has been fully installed, flushed, tested, and chlorinated.
The intersection of Iroquois Avenue and Orchard Terrace is closed to through traffic at the entrance to the commercial businesses. A detour is set up along Park Street to redirect traffic around the work area via South Street. For the residents of Abnaki Avenue, Cherokee Avenue, Algonquin Avenue, and from 101-119 Iroquois Avenue, please use the South Summit Street entrance to access your residence. For the residents of Orchard Terrace Cul-De-Sac, please use the Park Street entrance to access your residence.
The contractor provides their best prediction of their next work cycle. Please keep in mind that construction is a fluid process and sometimes plans must change based upon weather, conditions found in the field, or other factors.
