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

This project provides for the reconstruction of approximately 1,000 feet (existing alignment) of 8-inch diameter vitrified clay sanitary sewer on Hempstead Street from Kaufmann Street to Lowell Street. The existing clay tile sewer that was installed in 1924 has deteriorated to the extent that cracks and sags in the pipe result in poor performance. The sags and cracks require increased maintenance of the pipe and allow the inflow of extraneous groundwater into the sanitary sewer system. The current alignment places the sanitary sewer close to private property such that realignment of the sewer may be warranted. The sewer is located in Consent Decree Sanitary Sewershed 7 and was identified to be completed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency in the Consent Decree Corrective Action Plan. The project is included in the City's 2027-2032 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). As of June 24, 2026, further details have not yet been identified. *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.
