Fraser — A temporary, three pipeline sewer bypass, needed to offset damage done by a massive sinkhole in the city, will likely take a full month to complete, Macomb County officials said Sunday.
In addition, officials hope homeowners impacted by the sinkhole will be supported financially by state and, possibly, federal sources.
Macomb County Public Works Commissioner Candice Miller updated the status of repair to the ruptured sewer line that caused the sinkhole last month at a press conference held Sunday near the sinkhole site along 15 Mile.
Crews have been working to build the temporary bypass for the leaking Macomb Interceptor Drain sewer line to route sewage around the break and relieve pressure in the area. The lead engineering firm on the repair project is Shelby Township-based Anderson, Eckstein and Westrick Inc.
