For the safety of visitors and construction workers, access to the Arkansas River near the Waterworks Park project is now restricted. Construction on the $11-million project is underway below City Park and to the east of Pueblo Boulevard.
Foot and cycling traffic are allowed only on the trail to the north of the Arkansas River between Pueblo Boulevard and the Wild Horse Creek pedestrian bridge.
Construction is beginning on Waterworks Park, Pueblo Water’s $11-million rehabilitation project of the Southside Diversion Dam just north of City Park. The project will improve safety on the Arkansas River by creating a passageway that will allow users to ride the river unimpeded.
The wastewater or sewer charge on your Pueblo Water bill is based upon water consumed between the December and February (non-irrigation months) water meter readings. It consists of a monthly minimum and a volume charge which is the average usage during the adjustment period.
Every Pueblo Water employee wears a photo ID when on the job. If you are contacted by a service person claiming to be from Pueblo Water, please make sure they are properly identified before allowing access to your property. Pueblo Water will not contact you over the phone to verify personal information. If you have any doubt about a worker’s identity, please call our Service Department at 719-543-2217 to verify it’s a legitimate service call. We’re here for you!
Pueblo Water will be replacing a large water main that will impact traffic near U.S. Highway 50 and Paul Harvey Boulevard. Pate Construction is the contractor on the project. Traffic will be allowed in all directions, but there will be lane changes and delays. This could also restrict traffic flow on William White Boulevard. This main replacement project may take six weeks to complete.
