Upcoming Microtunneling on Blackpoint Lane and 16th Avenue

After the holiday weekend, the Contractor will be setting up the microtunneling equipment in the 16th Avenue jacking pit on Tuesday in preparation for installing the trenchless gravity sewer between 16th Avenue and Blackpoint Lane beginning on Wednesday. 16th Avenue will be closed to through traffic.

During the microtunneling, Blackpoint Lane will have limited access. A resident parking area will be provided in the East Cliff Village parking lot. Residents are strongly encouraged to park in this area to minimize delays. Please note that vehicular access can be provided upon request, but that it will likely require 15-20 delay to ensure a safe access is available.Pedestrian and emergency vehicle access will be maintained at all times.

This work is expected to be completed Friday 2/19 or Monday 2/22. The last day of work, the Contractor may require extended working hours from 7am to 7pm.

Once the new sewer is installed to Blackpoint, Installation will begin from 16th Avenue to Geoffroy Drive.
