A two-year-long sewer repair project in Montavilla is coming to an end. One of the last segments needing completion is near Montavilla Park, on Pacific Street, east of 82nd Ave. Work begins Monday and could continue for up to two months.

The Montavilla North and South Sewer Repair project started July 12, 2018. The project replaced or repaired miles of 100-year-old sewer pipe through a variety of construction techniques. Most of the work completed months ago. This work on Pacific Street and a few other small segments will complete the project.

Starting November 2, crews will use Cured-In-Place-Pipe lining (CIPP) and open trench construction on Pacific Street from 82nd Ave to 87th Ave. Portland’s Bureau of Environmental Services (BES) outlined the work planned for NE Pacific Street Sewer Repair on the project website.
