Project construction efforts will take place in Brooklyn on Hemlock Street, Crescent Street and Fulton Street.

Upgrading and relocating our utility to Hemlock Street to provide improved reliability, increased safety and optimization of use. Retiring our existing facility on Crescent Street after the new facility has been completed.

These upgrades will increase the systems integrity throughout your neighborhood, improving reliability of service, increasing safety measures, increasing sustainability, and optimizing our operations.

See the Construction Schedule for specific work hours for our upgrades.

Yes. Our top priority is the safety of our customers, the public, employees, and contractors. The professional construction firms we work with also place safety as their top priority. 

No. This work will be managed so that service interruption will not be an issue. 

Traffic will be affected during construction hours. Professional traffic flaggers will be assigned to the project to keep our construction activity from negatively impacting the area.

No, our work is mainly done within the Public Right-of-Way (ROW).

While our contractors will make efforts to keep disturbance to a minimum, there will be noise associated with these projects. Most of that noise will occur while excavation is underway as contractors use heavy equipment ahead of upgrades.
