Des Moines Water Works will be working on Cathodic Protection Project (Anode Retrofit) starting in your neighborhood. This project focuses on reducing the number of main breaks, therefore extending the life of the water mains that run through our streets.

During the installation of the anode retrofit system, parking will be restricted on the side of the street where the water main is located.  We will not be working directly in your driveways, however, our vehicles may be blocking them for a short period of time. We apologize for any inconvenience and noise during some portions of this project. The first stages of the project will most likely be the loudest, then there should be minimal noise produced in the remainder of the work.  All disturbed areas will be restored to the original condition after construction is complete.

 

The contractor will continue working on sidewalk on 63rd Street the week of June 18th along with restoration work along 63rd Street and 64th Street.  All work is weather dependent.

Those affected residents have been notified, please see those notices for more information.  Residents will need to remove all vehicles out of their driveways and garages, when work starts on their segment. They will be working one segment/block at a time. They anticipate it will take approximately 1-2 weeks per block/segment . 

Notices will be given prior to driveway removal for those residents. Residents on 63rd Street will have received a construction newsletter on the project. Lane closures on 63 ^rd Street will occur during the  construction of the sidewalk. You can expect lane closures during the times of 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. on 63 ^rd Street .

The remaining streets on the project (66th Street, 69th Street and 70th Street) are on hold until Des Moines Water Works complete their project, which is the anode retrofit project.
