Meeting to offer details on upcoming sewer improvement work in downtown Bellevue

People invited to meet project staff, ask questions

King County’s Wastewater Treatment Division and the City of Bellevue will host a public meeting to provide community members with information about an upcoming sewer improvement project.

Thursday, April 14
6 to 8 p.m.
Bellevue City Hall, Conference Room 1E-108
450 110th Ave. N.E., Bellevue

King County and the city are partnering on a project to upgrade sewer trunk lines along Southeast Third Street and 102nd Avenue Southeast in Bellevue that have been in service for nearly 45 years. The new lines will increase capacity to serve the growing downtown area and ensure the system continues operating reliably.

People are invited to attend the meeting to learn more about the project schedule, the expected construction impacts, and how King County and the City of Bellevue will work to ensure the project is a good neighbor during construction.

Representatives from Puget Sound Energy will also be at the meeting to answer questions about the utility relocation work in the project area.

Additional information is also available on the project website at

People enjoy clean water and a healthy environment because of King County's wastewater treatment program. The county’s Wastewater Treatment Division protects public health and water quality by serving 17 cities, 17 local sewer districts and more than 1.5 million residents in King, Snohomish and Pierce counties. Formerly called Metro, the regional clean-water agency now operated by King County has been preventing water pollution for more than 40 years.
