Construction continues on OKC sewer relief main
Construction is well underway on the Harvey-Shields sanitary sewer relief main project in the City of Oklahoma City. Located in the Lightning Creek drainage basin near SW 59th St and Santa Fe Ave, this sewer relief main will increase flow capacity in this urban area.
The relief line consists of 3,652 linear feet of 24 inch sewer line and 3,904 linear feet of 48 inch sewer line. The project also includes 495 linear feet of boring at eight different locations to avoid impacts to streets, drainage channels, and existing utilities. The depth of the trench extends to 30 feet deep in some areas.
GUY Engineering studied various alignments in order to provide the most cost-effective solution while minimizing impacts on adjacent properties and utilities. Construction is anticipated to be complete in early 2018.
