Reed Market Road closure at 27^th Street Sewer Line Project

On Friday, July 7, the City will close the east end of Reed Market Road near the intersection of 27^th Street. 

Between Daly Estates Drive/Camelot Place and 27^th Street, the contractor will close Reed Market Road for work on the 27^th Street Sewer Line Project. This closure restricts access to the easterly most section of Reed Market Reed only. Reed Market will remain open between 15^th Street and Daly Estates Drive/Camelot Place.

Please see the updated map at the project website: www.bendoregon.gov/SEI.

Detours are on Ferguson Road to 15^th Street. Southbound traffic on 27^th Street remains open; northbound traffic is closed.  This closure is anticipated to be in place until September 1.

“We are making good progress on the sewer installation,” said Eric Forster, project manager. “After the sewer is installed the road will be repaved and restriped for a brand new surface.”

The 27^th Street Sewer Line is part of the Southeast Interceptor, an addition to the City’s sewer collection system that will provide relief to sewer transmission capacity issues around Bend. The interceptor’s benefits include:

• Increased collection system capacity
• The availability of gravity sewer service to hundreds of homes that are currently on    septic systems
• The opportunity to decommission several sewer pump stations

The City of Bend protects drinking water sources, public health, and the environment by conveying and treating wastewater from throughout the City.
