Construction Project Summary

|
SAWS is replacing aging water lines with a history of breaks in several residential areas. This package consists of three locations: Alamo Blanco, Crippen St and Castle Run.
As part of improvements, SAWS will relocate water meters from alleys to the front of properties along several streets near Crippen. While we’ll do our best to limit disruptions, some trenching may be necessary. This could temporarily impact sod, sidewalks, driveways, or curbs—but SAWS will repair affected areas.
You may also notice lane closures or detours in the construction zones. At times, we may need to temporarily shut off water service to connect new lines to the existing system. If your service will be affected, we’ll notify you in advance.
For questions regarding this project, please contact Byron Gipson at 210-233-2977 or Byron.Gipson@saws.org.

During the presentation, contractors outlined key details including project timeline, process of construction, and what customers should expect when the project begins. Attendees from East Village learned more about which neighborhoods would be under construction. SAWS staff informed community members that they will be attending the next East Village Neighborhood Association meeting on September 9th to answer additional questions.
