Century-old waterline pipe gets upgrade at Railroad Avenue and 4th Street

In February 2026, City of Loveland Utilities replaced a century-old, 10-inch, cast-iron water pipe beneath the tracks at Railroad and 4th with a new 12-inch PVC pipe, set within a larger steel casing for protection. The older pipe, buried a mere four feet below and across the railway tracks, has supplied water to the residents and businesses of Fourth Street since 1924—from serving a population of around 5,600 to 85,000 people today. The construction is part of an ambitious downtown renovation project called the 4th Street Revitalization Project, the first phase of the comprehensive Heart Improvement Plan (HIP Streets) that centers on upgrading and improving deteriorating infrastructure such as utilities, roads and sidewalks in the “heart” of downtown Loveland.
