Overall Project Map


Project Overview:

Construction activities include the removal and replacement of the existing water main, sanitary sewer, storm sewer, concrete pavement, asphalt, curb and gutter, sidewalks, driveway aprons, and the addition of a shared use path.


Impacts:

This project will be constructed in phases to minimize local impacts as much as possible.


Contractor:

To Be Determined


Timeline:

It is anticipated that construction will begin in the spring of 2027 with all roads reopened in the fall of 2027.


Funding:

The project will be funded by a combination of City Funds (Wastewater Utility Funds, Water Utility Funds, Storm Sewer Utility Funds & Infrastructure Sales Tax) and Special Assessments to the benefiting properties. Special Assessments will be applied per City policy.


Purpose:

The existing asbestos water main is being replaced to eliminate asbestos pipe from the water system. The street reconstruction is necessary because the existing street section has deteriorated significantly and has exceeded its life expectancy. The addition of a path extends the path network through the corridor, connecting to multiple schools.
