South Sewall's Point Road Watermain (Phase 3 Area) and LPFM (Phases 3 & 4) Improvements

The Town is proposing the replacement of the existing water mains in the South Sewall's Point Phase 3 Area (Rio Vista/Homewood/Via Lucinda/Ridgeland) and the installation of new Low Pressure Sewer Mains (LPFMs) in South Sewall's Point Road from the same Phase 3 Area to East Ocean Blvd. These improvements will include new water mains, new water services, tie-ins to existing water mains, new LPFMs, new LPFM services and all fittings and appurtenances needed to complete the project. These improvements are being performed ahead of the proposed South Sewall's Point Roadway/Drainage Improvements. The Roadway/Drainage improvement design is being included as reference to ensure utilities are being constructed to avoid conflicts with the future improvements.
