I was preparing to share this information just so you were in the know, then realized "hey!  this will affect MY neighborhood".  Water pressure may be low or water service may be interrupted sporadically for upper Lincoln Park and Lower Piedmont neighborhoods TODAY!

This will alllow the City of Duluth Public Works & Utilities staff to repair a water leak at West 3rd St and 14th Ave West.  At least it won't affect those that are up early and have to be to work by 9.  They will begin working at 11:00 am and hope to be done by 7:00 pm tonight, although the snow we're expecting may change this. This work will affect one of the two 10” mains that serve the Lincoln Park and Piedmont neighborhoods.

This means that both residents and businesses in lower Piedmont and upper Lincoln Park may experience low water pressure or periodic outages.  We will be diverted to using just one of the 10" water mains and that will not be able to serve such a big area adequately.

The area that will be effected during the repair period is below 16th St between 29th Ave W and 22nd Ave W. Those located higher up the hill may experience the most disruption and intermittent water outages.

Thanks to the City of Duluth for letting us know so we can plan our day around the scheduled work!
