February 27, 2023
Parker Pump Station Replacement Project
The City is currently investing $26 million to replace the existing aging Parker Pump Station with a new pump station. This critical infrastructure, located at Eighth Street and Coronado Avenue, is responsible for collecting stormwater and sanitary sewer flows. After breaking ground on January 6, 2023, the construction is moving forward, and the contractor is making progress.
Project Update
The materials and deliveries continue to be secured, which is vital to the project, to minimize scheduling and delivery impacts. 

Sound abatement barriers have been installed along portions of the south and north property lines. Crews are potholing (excavating) the existing 54" and 24" storm drain pipes to confirm the alignment, elevation, and outer diameters, before specific materials are ordered. 
 
Beginning on March 1, the intersection at Eighth Street and Coronado Avenue will be closed for an extended period of time for the construction. The closure will ensure safety within the work zone and the surrounding area.
The contractor will also install the shoring system in the next few weeks. The work will take place sometime between March 1-22. The installation is expected to take 5-10 days and will be limited to working days (Monday-Friday) between 7 am and 4 pm. Notifications will be sent out soon and the contractor will distribute a door hanger, once the actual installation schedule is known. 
 
The contractor will work to complete the project as quickly as possible while minimizing the noise, and other impacts. We appreciate the community's patience as this vital new pump station is constructed.
