City contractors are replacing the water main under O Street near the 14th Street intersection in Downtown Lincoln, with work ongoing since June 8, 2026.
The project addresses aging infrastructure, as some pipes are nearly 100 years old. City officials stated that recent sales tax revenues have allowed for significant community investments, including the O Street project, a new public library, and a multimodal transportation center.
According to authorities, the improvements aim to enhance public services and support growth in Lincoln.
