MISSOULA — Missoula Water is launching a water main replacement program to reduce leaks and upgrade aging infrastructure.

Several projects will be taking place throughout the summer.

One of the projects — between North Dickens and North McCormick Streets — will require the closure of Toole Avenue between Owen and Alder Streets for about a month starting Friday.
