Project Location:

Located in Prairie Township, along South Grener Avenue.

Need for Project:

As part of Franklin County Sanitary Engineering's Sewer Condition Assessment project it was found that the sanitary sewer line that ran along S. Grener is structurally deficient. The main was identified in 2015 to be in need of lining. When we went to line in 2020, the condition of the main had deteriorated to point where it could not be successfully lined. It was removed from that project and made its own project.

Project Scope:

Franklin County Board of Commissioners, on behalf of the Franklin County Department of Sanitary Engineering, is replacing approximately 812 LF of aging 15-in sanitary sewer and 40 LF of 8-in sanitary sewer with new 15-in and 8-in sanitary sewer, respectively, including all manholes, on South Grener Avenue near Stiles Drive in Prairie Township. Additionally, the project includes the transfer of approximately 12 existing sanitary sewer laterals to the proposed sewer. Roadway restoration will include full-width planing and resurfacing of approximately 1,925 SY of asphalt.
