NU work on Eighth Street in Newport
Newport Utilities Water Construction Crews will be installing a new water line on 8th Street at Washington Avenue. This will require closing 8th Street while crews are working. Work will begin Tuesday, February 23. Crews will close 8th Street beginning shortly after 8:00 AM and will reopen by 3:00 PM to accommodate school traffic. This work is expected to take approximately two weeks. NU asks that commuters in the area be aware of crews working in and around the roads as safety of our crews and community is our priority
