Utility Infrastructure Improvement Project

Status as of September 5, 2025

Building a Better Bal Harbour for You

Project Overview and Benefits

The Village is currently improving the underground utilities within the gated residential community. Street paving follows the underground work to restore roadways throughout the area. While design work for these phases began many years ago, Phase 3 and 4 constructions 305-993-7361arted in April of 2020, and in Phases 5 and 6 in 2022. We anticipate all phases of work to be completed by 2027.  

While design work for these phases began many years ago, construction started in Phases 3 and 4 in April of 2020, and in Phases 5 and 6 in 2022. We anticipate all phases of work to be completed in 2027. Below is a brief synopsis of the work and schedule within each zone.

Once completed, these improvements will provide our residents and guests with:

  • A safe and efficient water supply system
  • A sanitary sewer system that meets regulatory requirements
  • A system that reduces groundwater infiltration
  • An enhanced stormwater system that more efficiently disperses stormwater after rain events
  • A system that minimizes any pollutants from stormwater discharging into Biscayne Bay.

Below is a brief synopsis of the work and schedule within each zone.

The overall neighborhood improvements have been broken into zones or phases. This helps focus on the contractor’s area of impact and completes larger sections of the neighborhood in a strategic way to minimize traffic and utility service disruptions throughout the neighborhood.

What You Should Expect

  • Routine project updates will be distributed to provide information on upcoming work and anticipated traffic impacts.
  • Future paving operations will require coordination with each of the homes in that area as vehicle traffic will be limited throughout the work zones during the placement of asphalt. More information will come before the paving is scheduled.
