Miles Road waterline replacement delayed to early spring 2026 after engineering issues
Summary
Mayor Klein told the council that engineering issues between Cleveland Water and Solon engineering delayed the Miles Road waterline replacement; the work is now expected in early spring 2026 to avoid winter construction and to allow repaving.
Mayor Klein reported that the Miles Road waterline replacement has been delayed after engineering issues between the Cleveland Water Department and Solon engineering needed resolution. He said starting the work late in the year would have forced winter construction and would complicate subsequent road repaving, so the village and partners now expect construction in early spring 2026.
Why it matters: The waterline replacement requires coordination among the village, Cleveland Water and Solon engineering and is tied to roadway repaving. Delaying to spring is intended to avoid winter conditions that would complicate construction and paving.
Details and guidance: The mayor said the delay stems from engineering issues that had to be resolved between Cleveland Water and Solon engineering. "If they start when they could, it would take them into a winter season building it, which would not be the best time to do this, particularly given the fact that we have to repave the the roadway," the mayor said. He said the project is now expected to begin in early spring 2026.
Decision status: The council did not take a formal vote; the announcement served as a status update and timeline revision.
Ending: Villagers should expect the Miles Road waterline replacement and associated repaving work in early spring 2026; staff will provide updates as schedules are finalized.
