Major Sewer Refurb To Resume In Southington

SOUTHINGTON, CT — Southington's ongoing sewer makeover continues after the holidays, with motorists being warned that a pipe maintenance project will take place Dec. 27-29.

The Town of Southington is rehabilitating sewer mains throughout town using cured-in-place pipelining, which creates a smooth seal inside the pipes and secures all connections, mitigating leaks in the process.

The work has been contracted out to Green Mountain Pipeline Services of Bethel, VT.

The method being used will provide a new, joint-less sewer pipe that minimizes root and water infiltration, improves flow, and provides a more structural sound pipe without costly excavation.

Lining is generally scheduled between the hours of 8 am and 5 pm.

During these times, the town is asking folks to limit water usage.

Those impacted will receive a notice when service has been restored.

The following streets are scheduled this week Dec. 27-29:

• Eastview Road from #27 to end of cul-de-sac

• Walnut Street from Mount Carmel St to #20 Walnut St

• Ridgewood Road from Crissey La to #50 Ridgewood Rd

• McArthur Drive – entire street

Those with any questions or concerns should call the main office of Green Mountain Pipeline Services at 802-763-7022; foreman: Matt Brown at 802-299-9069; project manager Kenny Assard at 802-281-8738; or Jim Grappone/David Nourse of the town at 860-276-6231.
