Project update

Electrical line relocation work on 35th PL SE extended
King County has been working with Puget Sound Energy to relocate gas and electrical lines away from the future sewer pipeline. Gas line relocation work is on schedule along 35th PL SE, but relocation of the electrical line is taking longer than expected. Work is now anticipated to continue through mid-March. Read more about work on 35th PL SE .

Project description
With over 400 miles of pipes moving wastewater to one of our award-winning treatment plants, King County WTD works hard to maintain our system. We inspect and monitor our regional system and update plans for needed upgrades.
King County WTD needs to replace sewer pipes that serve areas in North Mercer Island, the southwest portion of Bellevue near Enatai Beach, and the Town of Beaux Arts Village. This pipeline carries wastewater from the North Mercer Island Pump Station to the Sweyolocken Pump Station in Bellevue.
Schedule
Project design began in 2016 and will be complete in 2021. Construction is expected to begin in 2021 and extend until 2025.
