Starting June 1, the King County Wastewater Treatment Division will begin repairing a sewer pipe near Lowman Beach Park. Repairing the pipe will protect reliable sewer service to your neighborhood. This work needs to happen during the summer when flows are lower and conditions are safer.
The work area begins from the park and continues north about a quarter of a mile or 400 meters on the southbound side of Beach Drive SW.
The current fenced off area at the park is for ongoing pump station valve replacement work. It will continue into June.
Road and park restoration will occur this fall and early winter after the pipe work is complete. We will keep sharing project updates with the community. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
What to expect in June
-
Work hours: Monday to Friday, 7 am to 7pm. The contractor may occasionally continue to work at later hours. There will be no noisy activity after 7 pm.
- No interruption to wastewater service.
- Most of the park will be open. Work areas and the sidewalk on the east side of the pipe work area will be closed.
