The South Beach Street force main project is in its final phase as crews work in the area of Donnelly Place and Fremont Court leading to the city’s wastewater treatment plant. This marks the last portion of the 18-month project as the pipe has already been placed along South Beach Street. All stormwater backflow preventers have also been installed. As road closures are made, project managers continue to communicate with impacted residents and business owners.
Started last January, this $8.1 million project increases capacity in the wastewater collection system serving the downtown area. The project is on schedule and expected to be complete in July. Additionally, sidewalk placement for the Sweetheart Trail is substantially complete from Orange Avenue to Marina Point Drive.
