Middletown Sees $9 Million Sewage Plant Expansion Nears
Middletown prepares a major upgrade to its sewage treatment plant on Oxford State Road near the Trenton bridge. The $9 million addition will boost capacity to nearly 30 million gallons daily and raise cleaning efficiency from 70 to about 95 percent. The system uses bacteria in secondary treatment and an incinerator for solids, with methane powering parts of the operation. The project is funded by state and federal grants, loans, and a pay-as-you-go approach backed by a 1965 bond levy.
