Salisbury residents should prepare for road detours and water disruptions this Sunday as the city tackles essential infrastructure repairs.
The Salisbury Department of Waterworks Utilities Division plans to install a new 4-inch water valve along the 100 block of 2nd Street on Sunday, April 12, assuming favorable weather conditions. Officials say this project supports the municipality’s continuous infrastructure improvement and maintenance program for the water distribution network.
Starting at 8 a.m., authorities will block 2nd Street to all vehicle traffic from Delaware Avenue to Hill Street. The street closure is anticipated to last until roughly 5 p.m.
Residents in the surrounding neighborhood should expect their water supply to be shut off from noon until 4:30 p.m. City officials project full water service restoration by 5 p.m., though unexpected complications could extend the timeline.
Municipal workers have already contacted utility locating services and Central Alarm regarding the scheduled maintenance. City leadership expressed gratitude for community members’ understanding during this essential infrastructure work.
