Juan Linn Street Construction Between

Cameron and Liberty Streets Begins August 2

(VICTORIA, TEXAS) The City will install underground utilities on Juan Linn St from Cameron Street to Liberty Street beginning Monday, August 2.  During this construction, Juan Linn Street will be reduced to one lane, one way traffic from block to block on a temporary basis.  Flag men will be used to direct traffic in the construction zone.  Construction is expected to take approximately two weeks, weather permitting. 

All businesses and parking lots in the work zone will remain accessible via alternate routes. The City and contractor are working to reduce public inconvenience; however, drivers may experience delays in this area. Alternate routes are suggested when possible.

This construction is part of the $2,092,079.00 Downtown Water and Sewer Line Replacements (Phase I, Projects 3 & 4). The contractor performing the work is SER Construction Partners, LTD from Pasadena, Texas
