Puncheon Run Transmission Bypass - Kent County

This project extends the South Central Bypass from Isaacs Branch along US Route 13 to the connection of the City of Dover's Puncheon Run force main. The City of Dover's pump station will then be redirected away from the main transmission to South Central Bypass providing more capacity for the PS 3 and the main transmission line. Currently during high flow events the City of Dover station reduces the flow capacity out of PS 3. This project is being planned in coordination with the DelDOT Route 13 widening. The funding for the design & construction is Main System Capital Improvement Fees. Other sources of funding may be pursued. As of September 7, 2022, this project is currently in the FY 2023-2027 CIP. Information regarding design team and contractor selection has not been disclosed. A firm timeline has not been established; however, construction is scheduled for Fiscal Year 2022. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
