Wallace C. Drennan, Inc. crews are working on Versailles Boulevard between Walmsley Avenue and Fontainebleau Drive as they connect homes to the new sewer lines and start street excavation to replace sewer lines. Additionally, crews are continuing sewer line work on Short Street with waterline replacement work to follow. Neron Place is currently on hold until crew’s complete sewer line and waterline work on Sycamore Street.

We will continue to inform residents ahead of any work that will involve utility disruption and/or impact their parking and access to their street and driveways.
This $10.5M project was designed by Schenk, Endom & Flanagan. As a full-depth reconstruction project, work varies block by block but includes:
- Repaving asphalt roadway from curb-to-curb;
- Repairing damaged sidewalks and driveway aprons;
- Installing Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)-compliant curb ramps at intersections; and
- Replacing / repairing damaged underground water, sewer, and / or drainage lines.
The project began in October 2020 and is expected to be completed in winter 2022, weather permitting.
Information about this project was made available at a public pre-construction meeting on September 10, 2020. The presentation can be found here. For more information about this project and other upcoming work, please visit roadwork.nola.gov or call 504.658.ROAD (7623).
