Sewer Main Collapse Repairs In Process and On Schedule
By Denise Rivette
Red Lodge Public Works is diligently working to repair the sewer main collapse discovered last evening. They have located and accessed the break and are now in the process of removing the excess water so they can start repairs. They are still hoping to have repairs completed today. There have so far been no reports of sewage backing up into houses. Public Works Director Mike Maples and the entire crew are committed to repairing this as quickly as possible. To help them, please avoid the area so they can work as quickly and safely as possible.
The work being done on North Platt Avenue is unrelated to this sewer main issue.
If Red Lodge residents notice anything unusual with their sewer, they are asked to please call the City at 406-446-1606. Water is a separate system and water quality will not be affected by this event.
