Stonington — Aquarion Water Company has announced that additional water main replacement projects are scheduled to begin March 23 on Marjorie Street and Lantern Hill Road in Mystic, followed by Linda Avenue, Summit Street, and Elm Street.

The work is expected to be completed by mid-June.

The company said the projects, which will replace 3,050 feet of water main, are part of an ongoing program to improve its distribution system and ensure high quality water. It said the upgrades also will help to reduce leaks and water main breaks.

During construction, drivers should expect minor traffic delays and possible detours from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.

To keep customers informed about scheduled/unscheduled work, Aquarion utilizes a CodeRED notification system to call affected customers. Customers can sign up for the free service at bit.ly/AquaOut.
