(COLUMBIA, MO) ~ Columbia's Garth Avenue will be closed to through traffic between Oak Street and Ash Street starting Monday, Feb. 26. The City's Sewer Utility has announced that this closure is necessary for a sewer line improvement project.

The Sewer Utility has planned to straighten the sanitary sewer pipes as part of a rehabilitation project. To complete this task, a contractor will insert a liner into the repaired pipe and use blown steam to expand and harden it, reinforcing the pipe.
