(New Braunfels, TX – March 7, 2022) – New Braunfels Utilities (NBU) continues its work on the Castell Avenue 24-Inch Water Line – East major infrastructure improvement project. Located in the downtown New Braunfels area, this project is designed to increase water transmission capacity and reliability by replacing severely aged infrastructure. When completed, these improvements are expected to reduce water main breaks, leading to less maintenance events and lowering long-term repair costs.
As a part of this project, Castell Avenue between Elm Street and Butcher Street will remain closed through April 4, 2022, to allow D. Guerra Construction to remove and replace sewer lines in the area.
New Braunfels Utilities will provide up to date traffic impacts for Capital Improvement Projects such as this one on nbutexas.com/current-construction-impacts-and-road-closures, and on its Facebook and Twitter social media channels.
All work is expected to be completed as scheduled, weather permitting. Contact Desirae Medellin at 830.608.8971, or dmedellin@nbutexas.com with any questions regarding the Project.
