Bering and San Felipe Lift Stations

Exciting News! This week, all traffic control devices have been removed from Bering Drive, except for the southwest corner of San Felipe and Bering. This corner remains closed because the contractor needs to install a custom-made vent next to the manhole. Once this vent is installed, the project will be considered complete. Stay tuned for the final updates!

Thank you for your continued patience. We apologize for any inconvenience caused. The project is nearing final completion, with the remaining major tasks being the asphalt paving and minimal site restoration, which are scheduled to take place within the next two weeks. We anticipate the project to be fully completed by mid-July.

The completion of this project is anticipated to be the end of June 2024, weather permitting.

Utility Work:

The remaining work includes three tie-ins at existing manhole, and installation of vents near the intersection. All utility installation and site restoration is anticipated to be completed by Spring 2024.

We anticipate that the remaining work will extend for another eight to ten weeks, putting the estimated completion timeframe around mid-June or Spring 2024. The delay primarily stems from the testing protocols required for the reinstalled sections of the pipeline. As per these testing guidelines, the Contractor must wait for a 30-day period before conducting the necessary inspections on the pipe. However, there is a silver lining as we anticipate the removal of traffic control measures along a short section of Bering (near San Felipe) by month's end.

The Contractor for this project states: The work along San Felipe St. is complete. The work along Fountain View Drive is complete. The work along Bering Drive is expected to take another six to seven weeks with an estimated completion timeline of early April (Spring 2024). During this time, the newly installed piping system will undergo testing and constituents can expect to see traffic control measures removed near the intersection of Bering and San Felipe in the coming weeks.
