The sanitary sewer on the west side of Porters Lane requires replacement. The water main within that area will be replaced as well.  The westerly portion of Porters Lane will be closed throughout construction.

SAW Sanitary Sewer Cleaning and Televising Project

In 2020 Bloomfield Township obtained a Stormwater Asset Management, and Wastewater (SAW) grant through the State of Michigan. There are several tasks of work under the grant. One of the tasks includes performing a condition assessment of a portion of the Township’s sanitary sewer system. This includes cleaning and televising the sewer. The latest phase will occur in the Franklin Pump Station Area, which is north of 14 Mile Road between Inkster Road and Franklin Road. The sewer cleaning and televising project will take place along streets, in rear and side yards, and along rivers.
 
The contractor for this project is Monchilov Sewer Services from Fairgrove, Michigan. The project is anticipated to start in mid-June and last through the summer. During cleaning and televising there are no anticipated interruptions in services to homes or businesses. The cleaning and televising is conducted from within the sewer by accessing the sewer manholes. In some cases, the manholes are located within easements along rear and side yard property lines. Any disruption to property will be restored at the completion of the project. Driveways and streets will be kept passable during this period. The contractor will use water from fire hydrants within the project areas.

Long Lake Road Sanitary Sewer Replacement

(Update 12/21/2022): The Long Lake Road Sanitary Sewer Replacement is extending longer than originally anticipated.  As the project progressed it changed to include replacing the water main within the project area along with the originally planned replacement of the failing sanitary sewer.  Current projections plan to see the sanitary sewer completed and the water main nearly completed by the end of this week.  The first week of January will see the water main completed and put back into service; and the paving of the road patch across Long Lake Road installed.  Long Lake Road is anticipated to be opened for regular traffic prior to the end of the January.  Restoration work such as the paving of the Pine Tree Trail and Groton Road approaches; replacement of the safety path along the south side of Long Lake; and replacement of the trees and grass will not be completed until Spring 2023.
 
Bloomfield Township realizes the project is a major inconvenience for residents and drivers during the road closure.  Thank you for your patience and understanding over the course of this difficult project.  Updates will continue to be shared on the Township eNewsletter, website and social media channels as they become available.  If you have additional questions or concerns, please contact Cory Borton in the Engineering & Environmental Services Department at 248-594-2801 or via email at cborton@bloomfieldtwp.org.

A portion of the sanitary sewer that runs along the south side of Long Lake Road east of Franklin Road requires replacement. Due to the location of the sanitary sewer a portion of Long Lake Road will be closed throughout construction. The closure will occur in the area of Groton Road and Pine Tree Trail east of Franklin Road. 
 
The contractor selected for the work is V.I.L. Construction, Inc. from Sterling Heights, Michigan, and the project will be managed by our consulting engineers, Hubbell, Roth & Clark, Inc. (HRC).
