Sewer work has shut down several streets around Knoxville and more closures can be expected.

Knoxville Interim City Manager Aaron Adams says a crew will reconnect a lateral to the main sewer line along Robinson that will close the road between First and Second Streets until Friday.

Work will progress along Pleasant Street in a westerly direction to fix the infrastructure along that stretch of road. It’s expected be opened by this weekend.

Once work is done on Pleasant, that same crew will begin a new project that will shut down Main Street near 7th St for several weeks. Adams adds all the time figures for these projects are weather permitting.
