Sanitary Sewer Lining
With this project, approximately 2 miles of sanitary sewer mains throughout Wooster will be lined with a structural liner. The liner is installed from manholes, so no digging is required. This work will be done by United Survey, Inc. this fall. A portion of the project is being funded with an Ohio Public Works Commission grant. A map of the specific locations is shown below. Lining work is scheduled to take place from February until April.
