The Erie County Water Authority (ECWA) recently started construction installing 8,400 linear feet of watermains on Maryvale Drive, Union Road, Raymond Avenue, Huxley Drive, and Aris Avenue in the town of Cheektowaga.
ECWA will be replacing existing 6-inch watermains with new 8-inch watermains, which will improve service delivery, fire protection, and provide more dependability for customers in these sections of the town. The project is expected to be completed in November.
The $2.8 million infrastructure investment project was funded through the ECWA’s 2022 budget, which included $76.2 million for system-wide infrastructure upgrades. The 2022 infrastructure upgrades are part of ECWA’s overall $321 million five-year infrastructure investment plan.
