To minimize the impact on residents and businesses, all construction will be performed at night during the week. Night work will occur Sunday through Thursday, 11 p.m. through 7 a.m., with no work planned on weekends. During construction, traffic will be reduced to one-way with flaggers to guide drivers safely through the area. No traffic impacts are expected during the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Phase 2 (Jan. 2, 2026 to April 15, 2026): <\/strong>Updates and details about this phase will be provided closer to the start date. The goal is to minimize impacts to the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project, identified in NBU&#8217;s 2021 Wastewater Master Plan, will increase the capacity and reliability of wastewater service and odor control for the historic Gruene area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Gruene Road Sewer Main Rehabilitation and Relocation Project involves replacing an existing 12-inch sewer main with a larger 18-inch main in downtown Gruene. It also includes installing a new odor control unit along the 1200 block of Gruene Road to address existing odor issues. Additionally, NBU will replace aging 6-inch and 8-inch cast-iron siphon lines that cross the Guadalupe River at Gruene Road. The project is budgeted at $7 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NBU is committed to investing in critical infrastructure to provide reliable service and ensure the long-term health of the growing New Braunfels community.
