Charlotte Water crews are continuing their repairs along the Stewart Creek Greenway from a wastewater pipe that fell and broke into the eroded creek bank in early February.

Here’s an update on what crews have completed over the last couple of weeks, and what they are continuing to work on:

• Installation of sheet piles completed
• Site was prepared to begin the installation of new pipe
• Remaining concrete pipe removed, broken, and hauled off site
• Crews have installed 120 feet of pipe, and have 230 feet remaining.
• If weather permits, they hope to have all of the pipe installed and ready for testing by the end of the week
