Sewer Manhole & Pipeline Rehab Projects

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
  • Frye Road Sewer Manhole Rehabilitation
Price Road Sewer Pipeline Rehabilitation (Loop 202 Santan Fwy to Queen Creek Road)
Price Road Sewer Rehab Project Area

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: Installation of the sewer bypass is complete, and an important part of the rehabilitation process in order to bypass wastewater flows from the existing sewer pipeline to nearby manholes so that work can take place in the existing pipeline.

The bypass pipe has been buried below the asphalt surface in Price Road to better accommodate travel during the sewer pipeline rehabilitation process. Please note that 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 this year, after pipeline rehabilitation is complete, the asphalt and bypass pipes will be removed, and permanent restoration of asphalt will take place.

The bypass has been put into operation and is being monitored 24/7 during operation.

Sewer Manhole & Pipeline Rehabilitation (Pipe Lining): To prepare for the rehabilitation process, crews are currently conducting cleaning of the existing sewer pipeline (underground). The cleaning process is expected to take another 3-4 weeks to complete. While the cleaning process is taking place, crews are working at various locations along Price Road to install or rehabilitate manholes, which requires traffic restrictions in Price Road to shift traffic away from the work area.

Current manhole locations are on the north end of the project, just south of the Loop 202 east of Price Road, and on the south end of the project, south of Queen Creek Road on the west side of Price Road. Crews will progress north and south as manhole excavation and installation is completed at each location.

Once the pipe lining process begins, this effort will include 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. 

Please note that 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

Sewer Lift Station Rehabilitation Project

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.

Chandler’s contractor, Archer-Western, will begin work Jan. 21 to rehabilitate sewer manholes along Frye Road, from east of Alma School to the Consolidated Canal. Frye Road will remain open for travel during this work with traffic shifted away from the work area, and possible turn restrictions in place. Work will begin at the east end of the project near the Consolidated Canal, and move in a westerly direction. Work will take place primarily during daytime hours, weekdays, with traffic control removed during off-work hours to restore the road to normal travel. Resident, business and school access will be maintained, with project completion expected in 4-5 months.

This work is taking place in advance of the Frye Road Protected Bike Lanes Project which will construct 2.5 miles of protected bike lanes along Frye Road. Visit Frye Bike Lanes for more information.

Thank you for your patience during this work.
