A recent road repair in Lawrenceville resulted in a $77,006 emergency road work bill. The repair was needed as the result of a water main break on East Pike Street.

The repair job included milling, grading, paving, and striping of East Pike Street due to a ruptured 8-inch water main. The water line was damaged by a contractor installing a phone main.

This contract, recently approved by the Lawrenceville City Council, is funded by the city’s Damage to Property Fund. The roadway repairs were performed by E. R. Snell Contractor, Inc.
