SPENCER CREEK TRUNK SEWER REPLACEMENT PROJECT

 

Project Cost: $910,861.65

Contractor: Lamke Trenching & Excavating, Inc.

Scope: This project is replacing old sanitary sewer pipes with more than 4,500 lineal feet of sewer line at the back of City Centre Park, behind ball fields and St. Peters Rec-Plex South. Much of the work is being done through a trenchless process called "pipe bursting." New, larger piping is being placed inside the old pipe. The old pipe bursts into pieces and the new pipe will remain in its place. Through this method, there will be less disruption to the park and its facilities. The work consists of: pipe bursting 3,082 lineal feet of 24-inch fiberglass sanitary sewer line with 26-inch high-density polyethylene (HDPE) piping; pipe bursting 964 lineal feet of 18-inch fiberglass sanitary sewer with 20-inch HDPE piping; and the construction of 487 lineal feet of 24-inch reinforced concrete pipe and 16 lineal feet of 8-inch PVC gravity sanitary sewer.

Currently: The contractor is working on pipe bursting the 24-inch fiberglass line.
