Have you seen workers with reflective vests surveying your neighborhood? This work is part of the planning stage of a project to replace aging water main pipes in your area.
This project will replace around 7,900 feet of water main pipe. The pipes planned for replacement were installed in the 1950s and early 1960s. These water mains have reached the end of their expected life and replacement will improve water system reliability and resilience.
Residents who live in the following areas should expect to see surveyors in their neighborhoods over the next several weeks:
- • 9675 SE 36th Street
- • SE Gallegher Hill Road
- • Greenbrier Lane
- • Mercerwood Drive
- • 93rd Avenue SE
- • 94th Avenue SE
- • SE 43rd Street
- • Crestwood Place
As always, please slow down and give crews room to safely work when driving in work areas. More information about this project will be posted to the Capital Projects page of the City Website later this week.
PS: The City’s water distribution system includes more than 113 miles of water mains of varying age, size, material, and condition. Now you know!
