Environmental Services is constructing a project that will install and upsize public sewer pipes and construct green street planters in the Buckman and Kerns neighborhoods. These improvements will increase sewer capacity, relieve sewer backups, and help reduce street flooding.
General Schedule
Construction is ongoing and is anticipated to be finished by early 2026. Work occurs in stages, and not all at once.
ADA Ramps Removed from Project Contract
Due to unforeseen design challenges and contract schedules, approximately forty two (42) ADA ramps will be removed from this project.

Green street planters are built in phases with periods of inactivity between each phase. Excavation will happen first, then the contractor will build forms and pour concrete. Once the concrete has set, crews will return to fill the planters with soil. Plants and trees will be installed later when weather conditions are appropriate to plant. Please note: The holes that will be excavated for each green street planter will look bigger than the finished product.
