Site work and paving for a civil project in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Conceptual plans call for site work for a road / highway; for paving for a road / highway; and water / sewer project.

The City is moving forward with a sewer separation project on Fleet Street. It is required through the City's Long Term Control Plan and Supplemental Compliance Plan. The project includes water, sewer, drainage upgrades along with full streetscape rework and other pedestrian enhancements. Funding for this work will come from the water and sewer enterprise funds and the general fund (property taxes). Given the scope of this project, it will need to be completed in phases. The FY24 funding is for construction of a new drain line from Hanover St. to the North Mill Pond. Phase 2 will be Fleet Street from Hanover Street to Court Street as well as a potential expansion of the project limits as determined during the design. The expansion could include portions of Congress Street, State Street and Vaughan Mall. Downtown Aerial Utilities Underground (BI-21-PW-43) project is funded to bury the Fleet Street overhead utilities. Market Square Upgrade project (TSM-15-PW-61) will be coordinated with this project. As of March 13, 2023, this project is included in the City of Portsmouth's FY 2024-2029 CIP and funding is allotted for FY 2024, FY 2026, and beyond FY 2029. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
