Water project on Range Line Street

COLUMBIA, MO (September 3, 2010) - Columbia Water and Light will install a new 8-inch water line on the west side of Range Line Street, between Wilkes Boulevard and Rogers Street, starting Tuesday, Sept. 7. The new water line is being installed in conjunction with a road project and will deliver more water for fire fighting purposes. The work is expected to take three weeks to complete. During that time, parking along the street will be prohibited. Range Line will remain open to traffic in both directions but motorists are urged to be cautious in the construction area. Customers will be individually notified of any temporary disruptions in their water service while the work is being completed.
