Water Services had a productive summer season! Here is a review of some Capital Improvement Projects for 2020.

Coconino Estates Improvements, Phase I: This is truly a neighborhood facelift. While upsizing water and sewer infrastructure, improvements to storm drains, lighting and roadways were made. New sidewalks will aid intersection safety, as the roads experience higher traffic volume. Phase II of the project begins Spring 2021. 

Fir Avenue Water Main Replacement: Crews installed 3,062 linear feet (LF) of water main along Fir Avenue and Mesa Drive. The new infrastructure adds pipeline to 26 services and six fire hydrants, complete with paving for streets, curb, gutter and driveways. This should relieve the frequent line breaks and failures previously experienced in that neighborhood.  

Ft. Tuthill Utility Improvement Project: The collaborative Ft. Tuthill utility project led by Coconino County adds new water and sewer line infrastructure to support Ft. Tuthill County Park, Luke Air Force Base and future infill development. It will improve water quality for customers, while adding resiliency within our distribution system.

Industrial Drive Waterline Replacement: The Industrial Drive project is finishing up this month, replacing approximately 2,050 LF of new waterline, from Steves Boulevard to Caden Court.  

Summit Avenue Water Main Replacement: Work on  Summit Avenue  is still underway, replacing 3,300 feet of aged pipe, up to 90 years old. The project also adds new service and hydrants with water tie-ins on Walnut Street, Sycamore Street, and Summit Avenue. Next up, is work on Santa Fe Avenue. Project completion is estimated for spring/summer 2021. 

These infrastructure projects keep water flowing safely through Flagstaff. Stay up-to-speed on Capital Improvement Projects by visiting the CIP Map on our website.
