[ARCHIVED] Route 25 Water Main Construction - Dec. 12 Update

The original item was published from December 12, 2023 12:04 PM to February 13, 2024 12:05 AM

The City of Geneva is working on a water main infrastructure project along the Route 25 corridor (North Bennett Street). The primary project involves installing a new water main on the state highway from State (Route 38) to Jefferson streets. Construction began in October.

Dec. 12 Update

The City is anticipating construction will last about three more weeks, weather permitting.

While Route 25 continues to be closed at State Street (Route 38), the Wall Street intersection has been reopened to local traffic. Jefferson Street is currently closed as crews work on making the water main connection followed by concrete work.

As a reminder, businesses along State Street and Route 25 remain open to local traffic. See the City's local business access map.
