The Orange Water and Sewer Authority will close two northbound lanes of South Columbia Street near the Carolina Inn and Peabody Hall, starting Friday through September 16.
The lane closures will allow contractors to replace a valve on a deep underground water line.
OWASA announced that the work will be performed during daytime and night hours, including this weekend.
One lane will remain open to vehicles, as well as access to the Peabody parking lot.
Water service to UNC’s Sitterson, Brooks, and Chapman buildings will be interrupted on Saturday, and a sidewalk next to the work site will temporarily be closed.
Should work be delayed due to weather conditions, it will be rescheduled to begin Friday, September 19.
