Elyria moves ahead on Gulf Road Pumping Station project
Elyria plans a multimillion dollar upgrade to replace an aging sewer siphon on Windward Drive and Briar Lake Drive. The $4.5 million Gulf Road Pumping Station will channel wastewater to the Elyria Wastewater Pollution Control Plant via a new gravity sewer and forcemain, with plans submitted to the Ohio EPA for review and a DEFA loan sought. Construction is slated for later this year following bid advertising approved April 7, and the city notes grants are unlikely.
