Greetings Neighbor,
As you probably may know, the Yadkin Regional Water Supply Project (Water Line Project with Union County) will provide a long-term source of water to Northeastern Union County and assist Norwood with much needed revenue to assist in maintaining our excellent water supply to our customers. Norwood will acquire a new water intake and pump station along with many other benefits.
Construction is slated to begin early this year at what will be the new intake facility at the lake. This is after more that 15 years of work. To keep track of the progress and for more information on what is the largest water project in the state, you can log on to yadkinwater.com.
I have been informed that construction on any given property will usually last a couple of days to a couple of weeks. Most work will occur between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. weekdays. Any traffic impact should be minor.
Occasionally, a lane next to construction may be temporarily closed to for equipment and personnel to move around safely. Much care and planning have been placed into the planning and execution of this massive project. This project will be benefit Norwoodians and Union County. Construction should be complete in 2023.
This weekend, I encourage you to stay safe yet still get out and enjoy our great little town that is only getting better. We have a lot to offer, Let’s enjoy it!
Best Regards,
Scott Howard, MBA ICMA
