Sewer project progressing along Crabtree Creek
Construction started last year on a flooding fix, so residents no longer have to dread raw sewage oozing from below. The work is evident at Yadkin Drive and along the Capital City Greenway System near Crabtree Creek.
Posted — UpdatedConstruction started last year on a fix, so residents no longer have to dread raw sewage oozing from below. The work is evident at Yadkin Drive and along the Capital City Greenway System near Crabtree Creek. The city is building a new pipe along the creek, extending from near Crabtree Valley Mall down to Interstate 440 in east Raleigh.
Crews are finishing a tunnel under Capital Boulevard near Hodges Street that closed some streets and greenways in recent months, but Navarette says people have been patient.
"A lot of the people who use the greenway are the ones who have seen the sanitary sewer overflows, so they understand how important it is for us to stop this from happening," she said.
