37^th Avenue’s wastewater mainline will be replaced from King Road for 550 feet toward Harvey Street with a new manhole installed in the middle.
Washington Street’s wastewater mainline will be replaced from 37^th Avenue to 40^th Avenue with an new manhole installed in the middle.
Kent Street’s wastewater mainline will be replaced from 60^th Avenue for 275 feet toward the end of the cul-de sac.

The Milwaukie Station Food Cart Pods will get 6 dump stations for the food trucks to connect to and a grease interceptor to keep the pipes clean. Everything at this site will drain to the wastewater mainline under 21^st Avenue.

Alerts & Updates

Update (6.22.2023):
The city’s contractor, McDonald Excavating, Inc., is paving on Friday, June 23. Work will start on Kent Street, move to Washington Street and finish on 37^th Avenue. This work will close street parking within the work zone while construction is active. Those who live within the project area are recommended to park their vehicle(s) outside the project area because driveways and the street may be blocked for a few hours as the trench is paved and cools.
