NI Water appointed the contractor to carry out the work on the Ballygomartin Road.
The work is to start on Monday, 06 February, and is expected to be completed in three weeks.
It will involve the installation of a new valve and the laying of nine metres of watermains in the area, which will help improve the security of the water supply infrastructure for customers throughout Belfast.

Diversions will be put in place during the work and local access will be maintained.
Martin Gillen NI Water Project Manager said: "This project is good news for our customers in the Belfast area as the new watermain will improve the security and reliability of the local water supply, while reducing disruption and interruptions to supply caused by burst watermains. These improvements will deliver many benefits to the local community for many years to come.
"We would also appeal for the support of parents to keep children and young people safe by explaining to them the dangers of playing in or around construction sites. Playing near our works areas can have dangerous consequences and we would like to spread this safety message throughout the area while we complete this essential programme of work."
