The closure is scheduled between State Road 293 (Spence Parkway) and College Boulevard East from February 9 through February 12. According to Okaloosa County Water & Sewer, the shutdown is needed to complete a road crossing and connect a 30-inch reclaimed water main near Deer Moss Creek.

Message boards and roadway signage will be placed in advance to alert drivers. Motorists are encouraged to plan alternate travel routes during the closure period, according to the City of Niceville.

Reclaimed water systems reuse treated wastewater for irrigation and other non-drinking-water uses and are commonly used to support long-term infrastructure improvements.
