On April 7, 2008, the Warminster Municipal Authority will start construction for replacement of the sewer main in Second Avenue. The present work schedule anticipates work to continue for at least four weeks, weather permitting. During the time of construction, use of sewer facilities may be interrupted. Property owners on Second Avenue will experience disruption of the street in front of their property. We will try to minimize inconveniences during the work and will be responsible to restore all disturbed areas.

Utility construction projects are inconvenient due to their nature, involving equipment on the roadway, some dust and noise, and interruption of vehicular traffic. However, we will maintain access at all times for emergency vehicles and will minimize inconveniences to all homeowners.

Kindly contact the Municipal Authority office at 215-675-3301, ext. 201 if you have any concerns or questions during the construction. We appreciate your patience and understanding of this necessary work.
