The Town of Fort Smith is warning residents to expect disruption as construction work on new water and sewer mains begins.
In a notice to residents on Monday, the Town said construction would “begin in the very near future” and continue until the end of August.
Officials say ageing infrastructure needs to be replaced.
While those residents “directly impacted” by the work will be contacted separately, the Town said all residents should expect occasional disruption of water and sewer services as the installation of the new pipes takes place.
