The Borough of Ellwood City has announced the start of the Wampum Avenue Pump Station Project in its effort to improve the infrastructure in the area.
A letter was mailed to residents in the affected areas.
Construction will take place on Wampum Avenue between Madison Street Ext and Fifth Street Bridge. This project is a sewer upgrade for multiple existing sewer transport lines in the wooded area East of Wampum Ave. A pump station will also be built to collect from these lines to be transported to the Ellwood City Borough Wastewater Treatment Plant for treatment.
During the construction this street will be closed to thru traffic. Only homeowners, business owners, and customers will be able to access driveways and parking lots.
The section of the project that will affect access to property owners from Wampum Avenue is tentatively scheduled for October 2023 to December 2023.
The tentative construction completion date of the entire project is April 2025.
According to the borough, following the installation of sewer pipe, temporary road restoration will be placed, and the street will be fully reopened until final restoration. Final restoration will be completed on the roadway and any affected areas in the right-of-way as soon as weather permits in the first warm weather months of 2024.
Updates of the project status will be posted on the Ellwood City Borough website.
The borough appreciates patience as it works to improve the borough sewage system.
