39th Street & Fontenelle Street Sewer Separation Project

39th Street & Fontenelle Street Sewer Separation Project*

The 39th Street and Fontenelle Street Sewer Separation Project was constructed to help reduce or eliminate the frequency of sewer backups in the project area. The project included construction of approximately 2,000 feet of new sanitary sewer. Approximately half of this alignment was installed using trenchless or tunneled construction. In addition to the sewer separation work, new pavement was installed on 39th Circle and partial driveway replacements will occur in much of the project area. Periodic minor traffic disruption, specifically lane closures, on Sorensen Parkway and Fontenelle Boulevard occurred during construction.

*RNC refers to Sewer Renovations Projects that separate sewers for basement backup relief or to minimize street flooding, but don't provide water quality/CSO benefits and are not part of the Long Term Control Plan.
