A 60-inch relief sanitary sewer main will be built parallel to the existing 72-inch, M-245 West Fork Interceptor to address system capacity issues in the West Fork Basin.
Construction of the parallel relief line will connect two downtown Fort Worth deep tunnels with two West Fork trunk sewers near 1st Street, north of Gateway Park. The existing pipeline is located along Ham Branch Creek and along the original channel of the West Fork of the Trinity River.
The project is bound by Harmon Field Park to the west, East 4th Street to the north, Disposal Road/Fort Woof and Gateway Park to the east and South Sylvania Avenue to the south.
This capital improvement project spans two Fort Worth council districts. Improvements on the west side of the West Fork of the Trinity River are in Council District 8. Improvements on the east side of the river are in Council District 11.
Construction will impact the United Riverside neighborhood association, Riverside Alliance and the Neighborhoods of East Fort Worth.
