Site work for a water / sewer project in Bozeman, Montana. Conceptual plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

A critical section of existing sewer main begins on South 9th Street and continues north through Midtown, ultimately ending at Durston Ave. The existing vitrified clay pipe has been identified as high-risk given both the condition and age of the asset. In addition, the City's hydraulic model has shown that several segments of main to be near hydraulic capacity during wet weather modeling scenarios. The project includes either replacement or upsizing of approximately 3,000 ft of existing sewer main. Overall, the project will provide the necessary improvements needed to increase system capacity to meet future build-out conditions, while decreasing overall risk associated with critical aging infrastructure. The project was recommended to occur withinthe City's 5-year short-term planning horizon and is in conformance with the City's Wastewater Collection Facility Plan Update. Engineering is scheduled in FY28 and construction in FY29. As of January 6, 2025, this project is included in the city's 2026-2030 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) *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. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
