Construction work is expected to begin May 26, weather permitting, for the Renner Road at Wyndham Lane Large Valve Improvement Project with the purpose of replacing a 24-inch water valve. Work will take place in the eastbound lanes of Renner Road just west of Wyndham Lane, with the right and center lanes closed at all times throughout the project. Work is estimated to be complete by late June, weather permitting.   

The project is part of the City’s ongoing efforts to maintain and upgrade water system infrastructure. Richardson’s water distribution system includes approximately 300 large water valves that are 14 inches or larger, which are classified as critical infrastructure because they allow crews to control water flow and isolate sections of waterline during maintenance, repairs or emergencies. Replacing this 24-inch valve is a preventative improvement that will help maintain the reliability of the water system and support efficient future maintenance activities with fewer impacts to surrounding areas.
