EDWARDSVILLE - Today, Dec. 29, Visu-Sewer will begin preparing for sanitary sewer to be lined at the intersection of South Main Street and Schwarz Street in Edwardsville. The work was anticipated to start at 7 a.m. and be complete by 12 p.m.

“During construction, we expect a lane shift for eastbound traffic on Schwarz Street, but will maintain through traffic during the course of this project, said Ryan Zwijack, P.E., Edwardsville City Engineer. “The left-turn lane for southbound traffic on South Main Street will be closed. Southbound traffic that wants to turn left on Schwarz will be detoured to Linden Street.”
