The Suffolk County Water Authority (SCWA) has begun work to replace approximately 2,060 feet of undersized cast iron water main with new, larger ductile iron water main on Arnold Avenue and surrounding streets in West Babylon.
This project will improve overall system reliability and benefit the West Babylon community by supporting a stronger, more resilient water distribution system. The work is part of SCWA’s ongoing commitment to upgrading critical infrastructure to meet the needs of the communities it serves.
“Investing in projects like this ensures we can continue to deliver the highest level of service to our customers,” said SCWA Chief Executive Officer Jeff Szabo. “We are proud to support the West Babylon community with infrastructure improvements that will serve businesses and families for years to come.”
Construction is expected to be completed in May. SCWA says crews are working with residents to minimize any disruptions during the construction process.
