During the summer of 2009, the storm sewer on the east side of Pleasant Avenue between 507 Pleasant Avenue and Blackstone Place is scheduled to be replaced. The project will consist of replacing the existing 8" sewer with new reinforced concrete pipe of sizes ranging from 12" to 18". The east side of the street where the storm sewer is being replaced will receive new curb and gutter. In addition, the driveway aprons that are affected by the installation of the sewer will be replaced. The west side of Pleasant Avenue will receive new curb and gutter and the entire street will be resurfaced under the 2010 street program.

The second phase of the Pleasant Avenue infrastructure improvements is scheduled for 2010 construction. More information will be posted as it becomes available. If you have questions about this project, please contact Mike Bernardi at 847.926.1606 or mbernardi@cityhpil.com.

Additional projects for the City of Highland Park are in the planning phase. For additional information on specific projects, please contact the Engineering Division of Public Works at (847) 432-0807. Questions and comments may also be emailed to Public Works.
