The City of Salem is set to begin the next phase of its waterline replacement project on April 1, 2025, continuing vital infrastructure improvements in alignment with the ongoing highway project.
The South Main Street Waterline Project will extend from the south gate of the square to the bridge on Main Street and is expected to last approximately 120 days.
This project is part of the city’s ongoing commitment to enhancing water quality and modernizing infrastructure to better serve residents and businesses.
Due to the water line being in direct conflict with road improvements, the work is fully funded through grants secured by the Mayor’s Office via the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT).
There will be no additional cost to city ratepayers.
Throughout the project, traffic will remain open, and all businesses along South Main Street will continue operating as usual. The city appreciates the patience and cooperation of residents, businesses, and visitors as crews work to complete these necessary improvements.
“We are excited to continue making investments that improve essential services for our community,” Mayor Justin Green.
“This project is a step toward ensuring reliable and high-quality water access for our residents, and we are grateful for the state and federal partners.”
