Construction on Main Street in downtown Greenville is expected to begin in about a week, starting with replacement of water lines, followed by phase two of streetscape.

Tuesday, council approved a temporary parking ban in certain areas on Main from the former Bessemer and Lake Erie Railroad tracks to the Main Street bridge, effective Monday.

No-parking zones will be sectioned off with orange cones or signs that will be moved according to where construction is taking place.

The water line replacement project is likely to start next Wednesday or Thursday, Mayor Richard H. Miller said.

PennDOT will maintain traffic flow during both projects, and no street closings are expected, he said.

Kirila Contractors Inc. of Brookfield is replacing the water lines for $186,640, a project funded by Greenville Water Authority to upgrade the aging section of the system and improve fire protection.

SET Inc. of Lowellville, Ohio, is the contractor for phase two of streetscape, Greenville’s revitalization project that costs $1,343,864.

A $1.17 million state grant covers part of streetscape. The borough was required to pay 20 percent of the project, which equals about $260,000.

Streetscape includes new lighting, benches, sidewalks, brick crosswalks and landscaping, which will mirror phase one of the project that spans Main Street from Mercer Street to the railroad tracks.
