(Harrisburg) — A midstate water authority is beginning $1 million worth of upgrades in Dauphin County.

Capital Region Water plans to replace 1,400 feet of drinking water main line in the city of Harrisburg, Penbrook Borough, and Susquehanna Township.

The project is meant to improve water quality, service reliability, and flow for fire protection.

Street closures, parking restrictions, noise, and temporary water service interruptions are expected during construction.

The project is scheduled to wrap up by mid-July.

Project Locations:

-Magnolia Street between South 12th Street and South 13th Street, Harrisburg

-Ridgeway Road between Overbrook Road and Colonial Road, Susquehanna Township

-Clinton Road between Cloverfield Road and Centerfield Road, Susquehanna Township

-Herr Street and Laurel Street near Walnut Street, Susquehanna Township & Penbrook

-Darby Road and Darby Place near Vernon Avenue, Susquehanna Township
