FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Partial Lane Closure on College Avenue, Beginning September 16

FORT COLLINS, Colo. – The Fort Collins Utilities’ College Avenue Water System Improvement Project will continue confirming locations of underground utilities along the project corridor (known as “potholing”) beginning September 16. This work being completed will support the design of the future water project which will replace existing infrastructure in downtown Fort Collins. The replacement of ageing water mains will enhance system reliability, improve fire flow capacity, and protect water quality.
The project extends along College Avenue from Mulberry Street to Laporte Avenue. There will be a partial lane closure on College Avenue around the active work zones. Crews will be conducting work between the hours of 8:30am to 1:00pm, Monday through Friday. This portion of the project is anticipated to finish the week of September 29, weather permitting.
