Construction Notice Update #1 for the City of Norfolk - July 2024

Luxembourg and Ashland Circle Pump Station Replacements

Body

--Utility Work to Begin--

 

HRSD, your regional wastewater treatment utility, in coordination with the City of Norfolk, is planning a project in your neighborhood to replace the existing HRSD Luxembourg and Ashland Circle Pump Stations that are nearing the end of their useful life. This replacement project will also improve the sewer system’s performance and ensure continued, reliable sewer service in the future. This work should take place primarily between the hours of 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday – Friday.

Construction Update:

  • Beginning as early as July 15th, mobilization, erosion and sediment control installation, site clearing, and bypass pump installation at the existing Luxembourg Pump Station will occur in the vicinity of your home/business on Luxembourg Street between Versailles Avenue and Degrasse Avenue.

    • Bypass pumping will allow continued sewer services for the area while the pump station is being replaced.

  • This work will take place during the daytime and within the right-of-way and the HRSD Luxembourg Pump Station property. Nighttime work is not anticipated, but if it needs to occur, the contractor will notify you in advance.

  • Be aware, traffic patterns will shift and will include partial lane closures and detours to through traffic during the bypass pump installation. Access to homes/businesses will be available.

  • This work should not affect your water or sewer services.

  • This portion of the work is anticipated to be completed in 2 to 3 months. Due to the nature of construction, work is weather and situation dependent and dates are subject to change or be extended. An update will be provided when the next portion of work is ready to begin.

While our project team works diligently to minimize impacts, you may notice increased noise, traffic, and the use of heavy equipment (with back-up safety alarms) associated with construction. Please take care when traveling around the construction area and for your safety, do not enter the site.
