Sewer upgrades help city prep for summer roadwork
Sewer lines on a busy stretch of road in the city are getting some updates this week, which is going to help smooth things out on the street a little later this year.
City Manager Diana Burton said crews are working on five different locations on Seventh Ave. W., digging up the road and spot-repairing the sewer.
“This is in anticipation of roadwork that will happen later in the summer,” she said. “There’s going to be repaving on the road. We wanted to make sure we had an understanding of the shape of the underground utilities.”
Several points on the avenue are slated for road repair. City engineers assessed the lines with a camera last fall and this spring.
