Press release from the City of Peoria:

Stormwater utility dollars to cover portion of storm sewer replacement

Motorists may experience minor delays near the West Glen Avenue and North Sheridan Road intersection beginning Monday, September 14. Crews will be actively digging into a large-scale storm sewer replacement project.

The Issue:
The drainage system has failed – creating big issues for the City and local properties. Under the repair plan, a crew will install six-foot diameter pipe that will resolve the issue. Once the work is complete, the new system should last for decades. This project serves as another example of how the City of Peoria is putting stormwater utility dollars to work – making lasting upgrades and improvements.

Lane Closure Ahead:
Crews will close the outside westbound driving lanes Monday morning. The inside westbound lane will remain open. Motorists should expect minor delays. The work should wrap up in early December, weather pending.
