City of Shallowater Notice

Construction will begin on the 700 feet of 10^th Street closest to Avenue Q on Tuesday, September 8, 2020.  The city will also be improving the drainage along Avenue Q and the alleys from 10^th Street to 7^th Street.  The anticipated schedule for the street work is through the end of September. 

There will be no through traffic on 10^th Street.  Residents will have access to their homes, but will need to enter and leave on Avenue N instead of Avenue Q.  There will be through traffic both directions on Avenue Q, but it will be slowed down.

Bus traffic will need to be diverted to 9^th Street.  When the construction begins on the approaches traffic will be limited to one lane on 7^th, 9^th, and 10^th Streets.

The city will be coordinating garbage pick up with South Plains Waste Services to ensure minimal disruption of services.
