Del Rio Trail Sewer Rehabilitation Project
The Del Rio Trail is temporarily closed from Sutterville Road to Del Rio Road / Normandy Lane. Trail users can use the marked detour on Del Rio Road to South Land Park Drive / Sutterville Road.
The Del Rio Trail Sewer Rehabilitation Project will repair a 65-year-old sewer main pipe in the South Land Park neighborhood to increase its lifespan for about 50 years.
The project will rehabilitate about one mile of existing 72-inch "combined" sewer main pipe with a new resin-infused liner to resist corrosion and root intrusion between Sutterville Road and Fruitridge Road.
Some access to the Del Rio Trail, Partner Park Dog Park, through streets and parking may be temporarily interrupted to accommodate active work vehicles.
Impacts and closures
This project is expected to cause minimal disruptions to sewer service for residents and businesses.
While no service disruptions are expected, residents and businesses will be notified at least 48 hours before any shutdown.
The project team will also conduct outreach in the project area before construction.
Access to businesses will remain open at all times.
Temporary closures may occur during the project, including:
- Portions of Del Rio Trail
- Portions of Partner Park Dog Park
- Through streets
- Street parking
- Alleyways
- Private driveways
Construction activities that temporarily block homes or businesses may be modified to allow residents and business owners access as needed.
City staff are working to minimize construction impacts to residents and businesses, which may include noise, dust, resin odors and vibrations.
