The following sewer pipeline, manhole, and lift station rehabilitation are scheduled. Detailed construction and schedule information on each project is provided below:
- Price Road: Loop 202 Santan Fwy to Queen Creek Road
- Chandler Lift Stations Rehabilitation
The City of Chandler has contracted with B&F Contracting to rehabilitate the sewer pipeline in Price Road, from just south of the Loop 202 Santan Fwy to Queen Creek Road, and then further south slightly to the Ocotillo Water Reclamation Facility (OWRF) at the southwest corner of Price Rd and Queen Creek Rd. The “trenchless” technology of lining the sewer pipeline extends the life of the sewer pipeline and is less impactful and of shorter duration than removal and replacement.
Bypass Installation Nears Completion: Crews are nearing completion installing a sewer bypass to bypass wastewater flows from the existing sewer pipeline to nearby manholes for work to take place in the existing pipeline. The bypass pipe is being buried below the asphalt surface to better accommodate travel during the sewer pipeline rehabilitation process.
Traffic control remains in place 24/7, as needed, to protect the work zone until a large enough segment of asphalt can be applied to be able to restore the road to normal travel. This asphalt application is somewhat temporary in nature to accommodate protecting the bypass pipe beneath the road surface, but also permitting travel on the roadway. Late next year, after pipeline rehabilitation is complete, the asphalt and bypass pipes will be removed, and permanent restoration of asphalt will take place.
Crews have been working to install remaining bypass pipe off the roadway north and west of Wells Fargo, north of Queen Creek Road.
Scheduled to take place Tuesday and Wednesday, Jan. 7 - 8, beginning as early as 8 a.m. each day, crews will pave back the area near Wells Fargo driveway, near the Queen Creek intersection, and adjust paving in rough spots on Price Road where bypass pipeline was installed. Please obey traffic signage as it is placed for the safety of crews and travelers.
Work will continue to install bypass pipe off the roadway west of Price Road, from Germann Road to Queen Creek Road.
Scheduled to take place Tuesday, Jan. 7 through approximately the end of January, crews will work in the Queen Creek intersection to install a manhole insert. Traffic restrictions will be in place at the intersection, and left turns will not be permitted for westbound Queen Creek Road traffic (turning southbound onto Price Road).
As bypass pipe installation nears completion, the bypass will be put into operation toward the end of January with monitoring on site 24/7 during bypass operation.
Sewer Rehabilitation (Pipe Lining) Begins Soon: Scheduled to begin in mid-January, crews will conduct cleaning of the existing sewer pipeline (underground) to prepare for the rehabilitation (pipe lining) process. The cleaning process is expected to take about 8-10 weeks to complete. While the cleaning process is taking place, crews will also work at various identified locations along Price Road to install manholes, which will require traffic restrictions in Price Road to shift traffic away from the work area.
Once the sewer rehabilitation (pipe lining) process begins, this effort includes stationing equipment at various manhole locations to clean and then insert a lining in the existing sewer pipeline, which is then cured to create a permanent lining within the pipe. In addition, several manholes along the alignment require full replacement.
Once the lining and curing process begins, work will take place during daytime hours and may run into evening or night hours based on the length of the lining and curing process. Night work may be required for work in Price Road nearest Loop 202 Santan Freeway. As sewer rehabilitation completes in late 2025, the bypass removal and restoration will begin, with project completion scheduled for February 2026.
During construction, roads will remain open for travel with lane reductions and possible turn restrictions in place. Night work may be required for work in Price Road nearest Loop 202 Santan Freeway. (WW2302.401)
ADOT is currently working on a project near this area to widen the Loop 202 Santan Freeway. For more information, visit Loop 202.

The City of Chandler has contracted with MGC Contractors to rehabilitate several wastewater lift stations throughout Chandler to make repairs or upgrades. Work will typically take place on-site at the lift station; however, traffic restrictions may be needed in some instances to accommodate the work activity as many of these sites have limited space available. Work will typically take place during daytime hours, weekdays (excluding major holidays). A map of the planned locations and current tentative schedule is provided.
