Beginning Feb. 18, New Braunfels Utilities will close one lane of Common Street from Union Avenue to South East Avenue for approximately five weeks. The temporary closure will take place each day from 7 a.m.-5 p.m. as Greenstone Electrical Services performs utility pole maintenance and conductor replacement.

According to an NBU news release, the closure is necessary in order to maneuver equipment, materials, and crews safely. Traffic controls and detour signs will be in place to safely guide traffic though the area.

For additional information, call 830-608-8951. Work is expected to be completed in the timeframe noted, pending weather and other factors.
