Virtual meeting set March 30 on DeKalb County’s Green Forrest water line replacement project

DECATUR, GA– Efforts to improve water service capacity throughout DeKalb County continue on Monday, May 1, with the launch of the Green Forrest Water Line Replacement Project.

A virtual community meeting about the project will be held on Thursday, March 30, 6:30 p.m., via Zoom at https://dekalbcountyga.zoom.us/j/89274443270.

Crews will replace 20,200 linear feet of crumbling water lines with new 8-inch-diameter and 12-inch-diameter ductile-iron water lines along Green Forrest. This line repair project is expected to last approximately 10 months (May 2023 to February 2024), barring any weather delays.

Normal construction hours will be from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding major holidays. An increase in construction-related noise and traffic during work hours should be expected.
