Downtown SLC traffic update: State Street waterline replacement near State Capitol to wrap up by end of August
“We really needed to shut down State Street so we could get the project completed in a timely manner and also in a safe manner," said Laura Briefer, the director of Salt Lake City's Department of Public Utilities."And so we really do appreciate that this has been inconvenient for people who live around the area or are trying to get from one place to another.”“We are really excited about this project," said Briefer."We're replacing a more than 100-year-old waterline.
“Salt Lake City's water system is also very vast," said Briefer."Our entire water system serves about 141 square miles. And so, every part of the system that we can update like this actually has indirect benefits to other parts of the system as well because it's a very connected system.” “I'm one of those people affected," said Briefer."I live in the Avenues area, and especially at the end of the school year this year, when I was bringing my kids to West High, having that extra diversion was a little inconvenience. But, you know, we all understand we need to take care of our water infrastructure. It's just so important.”
