EPCOR will begin work on its water line replacement project on Sunridge Drive on Monday, March 4.

EPCOR has worked closely with the Town of Fountain Hills to ensure a minimal amount of disruption to residents who live near the streets impacted by the project. Residents are advised to be aware of roadway restrictions as EPCOR works to replace the water main along Sunridge Drive.

The following outlines the maintenance and detour schedule: Section 1 is proposed to take place in the northbound lane of Sunridge Drive between Sunset and Desert Canyon. Only the northbound traffic is slated to be affected during this phase. This is scheduled to take place March 1 through April 15.

Section 2 is proposed to take place in the northbound lane of Sunridge just north of the Sunridge Canyon Golf Course entry. Only the northbound traffic is slated to be affected during this phase. This is scheduled to take place April 15 through May 15.

Section 3 will mimic section one in the fact that the northnound lane will be closed and detoured on to Manzanita, but the southbound lane will remain open. The tentative schedule for this to take place is May 15 through June 15.

The last phase is the Sunridge and Palisades intersection. It is proposed that the road will be closed on the nortbound Lane. Work is set to start after the last tee time is confirmed with the golf course, or after the golf course is closed for the evening. This will be planned as evening/night work and coordination.

Flaggers will be used during construction so northbound and southbound traffic can continue on Sunridge Drive from Palisades. This is set to take place from June 15 through June 30.
