The project will replace existing two-inch water mains with new six-inch water mains to improve water service in the North Heights area. In preparation, the City of Amarillo Solid Waste Department is relocating dumpsters in affected alleys. The project will affect traffic around construction areas. The contractor will minimize impact to the public as much as possible. Motorists are advised to please heed all traffic signs in the area.
