Sewer rehab continues in August, with manhole repairs starting Monday

Posted at 12:08 pm August 23, 2015
By City of Oak Ridge Leave a Comment

Sewer rehabilitation continues in August, and starting Monday, August 24, Portland Utilities will be back in town doing manhole repair, primarily in the Central City Sewer Shed. Portland Utilities will notify residents by knocking on their doors on a case-by-case basis. They will be working for about three weeks, deepening upon the weather, a press release said.

The sewer rehab is being done Morgan Contracting, working under contract for the City of Oak Ridge. They are rehabilitating the city’s sewer collection pipes within city easements in yards and in roadways, the release said.

Residents should have already received letters on colored paper (green for Morgan Contracting) and door hangers providing general information and the applicable contractor’s contact information.

Motorists, pedestrians, and cyclists are urged to use extra care and caution when traveling on the streets with sewer work areas. Temporary road repairs will be made and loose gravel should be expected until the patches are permanently paved, the press release said.

All construction work is subject to change based on such unknowns as weather, equipment, and access issues. The construction work schedule for the month that started August 3 is as follows:
