Sewer Repair to be Completed by Next Week
By Gazette Staff Writers — Thursday, September 14th, 2023
Work on the sewer repair is almost over! The new sewer line and the manholes have been completed and the sewer by-pass pumps were turned off as of Friday, September 1, according to Troy Spayd, Fillmore City Municipal Service Director. The sewage has been flowing since then and the contractors are working on making road repairs and demobilizing the equipment. Paving has begun and will last through Thursday, Sept. 14. Then there will be restriping that needs to take place. Most of the work will be completed by the end of this week, with everything finished by end of next week. The cost of the extensive repair that took place after storm damage to the sewer on March 16 was almost $4 million. In and out-of-town traffic has been greatly impacted by Highway 126 and street closures, and the community is relieved the roadwork is ending. Photo credit Angel Esquivel-AE News.
