Purpose & Explanation
The scope of this project involves the lining of approximately 2900 feet of 8 inch sanitary sewers, 400 feet of 10 inch sanitary sewers, 650 feet of 12 inch sanitary sewers and 180 feet of 21 inch sanitary sewers. The sanitary sewers that will be lined are located on Hartford Drive, West Streetsboro Street, Sunset Drive, Clairhaven Road, Aurora Road and under the under the Norfolk Southern railroad tracks off of Morse Road. The existing sanitary sewers were constructed with vitrified clay pipe and are in poor condition. The sanitary pipe is fractured in a number of locations and the pipes have significant infiltration issues. The pipes have offset joints which could contribute to main line blockage.
