Construction Continues For Sewer Improvements Near 394 in Golden Valley

According to the city of Golden Valley: Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES) is installing a new 18-inch regional sanitary sewer force main in Golden Valley to help relieve sanitary sewer capacity concerns along the I-394 corridor.

Most of the installation of the MCES 1-GV-461 Reliever Project along Xenia Ave and Turner’s Crossroad will be completed during the 2013 summer construction season. Small portions of the project will need to be wrapped up in 2014. The project began last week with the removal of trees and shrubs along the proposed force main route.

 This week, the contractor plans to install erosion control measures. Crews will also begin installing sheet pile walls in two areas of the project, one near the intersection of Glenwood Ave and Turner’s Crossroad and one near the intersection of Laurel Ave and Xenia Ave S.

Expect minor traffic control and roadway modifications when traveling through this corridor. Weekly updates will follow.
