Progress Report:
Fer-Pal has begun the process of cleaning the existing water main and televising the inside of the pipe. The lining work is scheduled to begin tomorrow on 4 Mile Road. Fer-Pal will start lining the existing water main on 4 Mile Road at Oakridge Avenue and work their way east to West River Drive. Once the water main along 4 Mile Road has been lined Fer-Pal will start at the south end of West River Drive and work north. Fer-Pal will continue to work along 4 Mile Road and West River Drive during Mill Creek Days but will confine their work to the lane closures that are currently set up. We appreciate your patience while this critical infrastructure project is being completed!
Upcoming Work:
For the next few weeks Fer-Pal will have multiple crews working throughout the project site. There will be crews installing the CIPP pipe liners, crew televising the inside of the pipe before and after it is lined, and crews pressure testing and disinfecting the pipe after it has been lined. Once all of this work has taken place on a segment of water main, Hoffman Brothers will have a crew on site to reconnect the lined pipe to the existing water main.
