Beginning the week of April 20, 2026, the City of Cheyenne Board of Public Utilities (BOPU) anticipates construction activities to begin on a water main rehabilitation project including a full road closure of E 1st Ave. between Evan Ave. and Central Ave. Closure will also include House Ave.
Construction on this project, and road closure, is expected to be completed by mid-May, depending on weather and material availability.
The BOPU will work diligently to keep homes and businesses accessible, however vehicles should not be parked in the Right-of-Way. This area will be clearly marked. Direct access to driveways may not be possible during construction. The BOPU asks residents to park safely in areas away from the work zone.
Water shut offs will be coordinated, but unfortunately unplanned emergency shut offs may occur.
This project will advance water service reliability for the area and is part of the BOPU’s initiative to accelerate the renewal of water infrastructure that has reached the end of its useful life. Work will be completed by Aztec Construction Company. The BOPU thanks residents for their patience as we upgrade the water system.
