New Jersey American Water To Replace Water Main Lines In Cinnaminson As Part Of Massive Project

Cinnaminson, NJ -- Over the next several weeks, New Jersey American Water will be investing approximately $2.5 million for the installation of new water mains in multiple towns in Burlington and Camden counties, including Cinnaminson.

Projects will also take place in Cherry Hill, Gibbsboro and Westampton, the water company announced on Friday.

The approximately 11,470 feet of new pipe replaces water main that was installed as far back as the 1920s. The aging transite water lines will be replaced with ductile iron pipes.

New Jersey American Water said that after the replacement of these water mains, customers should experience increased water flows, as well as more reliable water service and fire protection.

These water main improvements are part of New Jersey American Water’s multi-million dollar program to accelerate the renewal of water infrastructure that is reaching the end of its useful life in more than 100 communities across the state.

Beginning in November, New Jersey American Water crews will be working along the following streets in Cinnaminson:

• Jefferson Street; between US-130 to Division Street
• Webster Street between Jefferson Street to Adams Street

Construction is expected to be completed by the end of December. Final street restoration will be completed in the spring of 2017.

New Jersey American Water advises pedestrians and drivers to take caution in work site areas.
