As part of its annual Citywide Main Replacement Program, Pueblo Water soon will begin work on its 2024 project in St. Clair Avenue.
Pueblo Water is replacing aging 12-inch cast iron main in advance of future repaving of the street by the City of Pueblo. The project replaces approximately 4,200 feet of pipe from Avocado Street west of Pueblo Boulevard east to Westacres Avenue. Construction is expected between August and November.
Traffic delays are expected in both directions on St. Clair Avenue and at the intersection of St. Clair and Pueblo Boulevard. Temporary road closures will also occur on the side streets within the limits of this project. There will be no work or road closures during the Colorado State Fair.
Tony J. Beltramo & Sons, Inc., was awarded the contract with a bid of $1,171,758.50.
Since 2000, Pueblo Water has replaced more than 29.6 miles of mains at a cost of approximately $20.5 million.
