CRW flags Block Street and Main Street sewer problems; recommends camera work and targeted replacements

Jul 28, 2026

CRW presented sewer problems on Block Street (shallow cover and recurring blockages), Inlet Street (possible service line issue) and Main Street (widespread infiltration and damaged manholes) and recommended camera inspections, summer I&I evaluation, and targeted replacements before committing to full Main Street replacement.

The full story

CRW reported Block Street sewer manholes with as little as two feet of cover and frequent blockages caused by a wetland alignment and manhole instability; the firm recommended a realignment/extension that would involve pile‑supported work across the wetland. For Inlet Street CRW said a private service issue is suspected and recommended locating a cleanout before deciding on main replacement.
