Part of Main Street to Close for Sewer Line Project

The City of Zanesville is closing Main Street starting Monday (today) to replace a deteriorating sewer line.  During an inspection of the line five years ago a section collapsed underneath the hand laid brick that was installed over 120 years ago.  The city contracted with a local engineer and contractor for repairs, but it was determined that due to deteriorating conditions it would be unsafe working conditions.  Starting at 7:00 am the upper end of Main Street will be closed down until repairs are completed.
