According to Fairhope Police, N. Section Street (south of the elementary school) from Oak Avenue to Bayou Drive will be closed Monday to complete the sewage transmission pipe capacity upgrade that has been underway for several months.

Cost of this project is just over $2 million.

This will be the last segment (under Section Street) of the new, bigger gravity-feed pipeline that runs from its low point at the treatment plant up Bayou, Fairwood, and Fairhope Avenue to its high point at Ingleside Drive.

Section Street should reopen by April 18th, according to police.

Another similar project planned for Church Street may have to be postponed due to the current coronavirus state of emergency.
