38th Avenue Water Storage Tank

• Project Number: 16WC0018
• Project Summary: The project is located between 38th Ave N. and 37th Ave. N. The project consists of the demolition of the existing water storage tank and the construction of a new 2.5 million gallon above ground water storage tank. Construction also includes almost 1,000 linear feet of 12” and 24” water main, a new fire hydrant, and 679 linear feet of stormwater infrastructure. Other miscellaneous site improvements such as a sidewalk and fencing are included in the project scope. Our contractor will attempt to minimize disruption to the community as much as possible. However, nearby residents will see an increase in truck traffic and may experience noise and dust associated with demolition and construction. Customers will be notified prior to any scheduled service interruption 24 hours in advance either in person or with a door hanger. Once the project is complete, the community will have new water reservoir providing improved water quality, reduced risk of pressure surges (reduced potential for line breaks and water loss), and additional emergency storage.

A community meeting will be held 6:30 p.m.-8:00 p.m. on Thursday, February 29, 2024, at the McCabe Community Center, 101 46th Avenue N., Nashville, TN 37209.

Drummond Drive Water and Stormwater Improvement Project

• Project Numbers: 22WG0023, 23SC0146, and 23SWC011
• Project Summary: The project consists of the replacement of existing 4-inch and 6-inch water mains with approximately 6,800 linear feet of 8-inch water main. The project is located on Glenrose Ave/Drummond Dr and Wildview Dr, beginning near the Glenrose Interstate 24 underpass, crossing the Thompson Ln intersection, and ending at the intersection of Crowder Ct. The new water main will improve water quality and fire flow . Additionally, a failed corrugated metal stormwater culvert beneath the roadway at 924 Drummond Dr will be replaced, improving drainage to Mill Creek. The work will be constructed in segments with pavement restoration and site cleanup to be completed before beginning the next segment. Disruptions to water service, when required, will be short in duration and coordinated in advance to minimize the impact to residents (typically performed at night). Noise, dust, and truck traffic disturbances created by construction activities will be isolated to localized areas of excavation as the project progresses. Upon project completion, the roadway will receive full width repaving. A portion of this job overlaps with NDOT’s larger paving project that will resurface E Thompson Ln.
• Council District: 16 – Ginny Welsch
• Contractor: Walker Building Group
• Project Timeline: April 2024 - March 2025
• Work Hours: Hours to be determined by NDOT; Daylight hours anticipated, possible night work crossing the E Thompson intersection.
• Road Closure/Detour: Water main construction will occur within the roadway. A minimum of one lane will remain open to traffic. A roadway detour via Wildview Dr will be provided during the stormwater culvert replacement near 924 Drummond Dr.

East Nashville Water Main Replacement - Phase 1

A community meeting will be held at 6 p.m. on April 9, 2024, at the McFerrin Community Center.

• Project Number: 21WC0106
• Project Summary: The project will replace approximately 18,000 linear feet (LF) of various-sized existing water mains (2.25-inch through 12-inch cast iron pipes) with new ductile iron pipe water mains (6-inch through 12-inch). The existing water mains are undersized, very old, made of outdated pipe material, and have breakage histories. Phase One is bounded by Joseph Avenue, Cleveland Street, Lischey Avenue, and Meridian Street near Dickerson Pike. Water main construction will not take place in Cleveland Street or Lischey Avenue during Phase One. The project will increase water services and reliability and provide improved fire protection. MWS personnel and their contractor will work to minimize construction concerns such as noise, dust, and truck traffic. Service interruptions will be minimal and will be scheduled with impacted residents ahead of time.
