Site work for a water / sewer project in Barnstable, Massachusetts. Conceptual plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

The purpose of this project is to complete the rehabilitation or replacement of the Ocean Street/Bayshore Road and Old Colony Road Pump Station force mains. This request serves as a placeholder for the construction work that will follow the ongoing evaluation and design efforts. The Ocean Street and Bayshore Road Pump Stations share a 10-inch cast iron force main that is approaching 90 years in age. The Old Colony Road force main ranges in size from 16 to 20-inches, is constructed of asbestos cement, and is nearly 70 years old. Once a preliminary analysis of alternatives is completed and the preferred rehabilitation method is identified, the project will be designed and then constructed. The goal of this project is to rehabilitate these pipes to extend the life of these force mains by another 50 years, or to install new pipes with a similar life expectancy, or a combination of the two. As of May 28, 2024, this project is included in the Town of Barnstable's Fiscal Year 2025-2029 CIP and funding is allotted for construction in FY 2026. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change.
