Concord Street Wastewater Project
February
14, 2020 – KUB’s
contractor, Morgan Construction, continues to rehabilitate wastewater pipe and
manholes on Concord Street near the railroad crossing. The contractor plans to
work this Saturday and Sunday, February 15-16, to make up for time lost to
weather this past week. Traffic flow may be reduced to one alternating lane
temporarily on Saturday, but flaggers will be on site to assist with
maintaining traffic flow. As a reminder, due to the location of wastewater
pipes and manholes under the roadway, lane shifts will be needed in the
immediate area where crews are working for the duration of this project. This
project is scheduled for completion by late March 2020.

See the attached map showing current work corridors within the park. The park,
all entrances and parking areas, and boat ramp remain open during this work.
Morgan Construction continues to maintain a fenced area in the middle parking
lot for equipment and materials storage. KUB has coordinated work in the park
with City of Knoxville Parks and Recreation and the Kingston Pike Sequoyah
Hills Association. Informational banners have been placed in the park
entrances/parking areas to provide park visitors with details about the
wastewater rehabilitation work. Updates on the progress of work in the park
will be posted weekly and as needed on this blog site.
Natural
Gas System Work – Crews are scheduled to resume natural gas inspection and
maintenance work at various locations throughout Sequoyah Hills in February.

and restoration will take place at the conclusion of the wastewater project.
