Two Brothers Utilities will be contracting with the City of Shelby, North Carolina on the below referenced project. Traffic routes may be severely impacted for a duration of time. We ask that you please plan accordingly and pardon the progress!
Traffic Detour Notice - South Lafayette Street Waterline Replacement
Beginning on August 24 and running through October 5, South Lafayette Street will be closed to through traffic between the Broad Street/South Morgan Street area and Ramblewood Drive/Morton Street, while the City replaces aging waterline along South Lafayette Street.
Motorists should follow the posted detour routes shown on the map and allow for extra travel time. Local access will be maintained for residents and businesses within the construction area.
For a map showing the area where work will be conducted and the designated detour routes, visit www.cityofshelby.com/news.
Once the waterline project is complete, NCDOT plans to repave South Lafayette Street. This repaving is expected to be completed before the end of November.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation while we complete these important infrastructure improvements!
