The Village of Bluffton is contracting J&D Snyder to replace 440 feet of sewer line on County Line Road, according to Bryan Lloyd, assistant village administrator.
"This work will take place mostly in the tree lawn on the west side of the road starting at East Elm Street and heading south," he said.
J&D Snyder is planning on beginning the work Monday, Dec. 9. The work should take approximately one week to complete. During this time some lane restrictions and delays are to be expected on County Line as well as East Elm Street.
