Environmental Services is designing a project to repair 9,700 feet, or almost 2 miles, of aging public sewer pipes in downtown Portland. Having provided 140 years of service, the pipes require repairs to reduce risks of basement flooding and sewage releases to downtown buildings and streets.

Environmental Services completed a project to replace an existing 114-year‐old, 240-foot-long public sewer pipe in the Creston-Kenilworth neighborhood. This project will protect public health and the environment by increasing the capacity of the public sewer system.

PBOT will build new neighborhood greenway on four corridors in the Portsmouth and University Park neighborhoods. Neighborhood greenways are quiet, slow streets that prioritize people walking, bicycling, and rolling, and provide connectors between neighborhood parks, schools, and business district.
