Project Objective
A contractor working for JEA (Murphy Pipeline) replaced a portion of sanitary sewer main line on Avondale Avenue near the intersection of Remington Street. This sewer line had reached the end of its useful service life and was proactively replaced to ensure the reliability of the sewer system. Failures to sewer lines can potentially cause major sewer back-ups, environmental harm, and roadway issues.
Construction Conditions
This project was completed using the pipe bursting method of construction. This method is less disruptive to neighborhoods than the traditional open-cut method of replacing sewer lines and the overall project duration is typically shorter. Watch a video to learn more about the pipe bursting process. Learn more at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5JRzpwSbUs.
Construction primarily occurred in City of Jacksonville rights-of-way, roads, and easements.
Restoration of the Project Area
Restoration of the project are typically begins 2-3 weeks after the new sewer line has been repaired, tested, and cleared for use. Any existing pavement, grass, curb, gutter, driveways and/or sidewalks affected during construction will be returned to its pre-construction condition.
