91st / NE 42nd Stormwater Upsizing & Underground Utility Conversion Project

The Town of Yarrow Point will complete an overhead to underground utility project for power, phone, and cable on both NE 42nd Street and 91st Avenue NE.

City of Bellevue completed the stormwater upsizing project in summer of 2020.

The Town of Yarrow Point received ten (10) separate bids by the deadline for the underground utility conversion portion. The certified bid results were also posted to the town website at: https://yarrowpointwa.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/TYP_NE-42nd-91st-Ave-Certified-Bid-Results.pdf

The project was awarded to the low bidder, PGH Excavating, Inc, during the October 13, 2020, Council meeting.

During Construction there will be significant impact to the town right-of-way. These impact are likely to include:

• Water main installation and new service connections;
• NE 42nd Street Beach - Sanitary sewer pump station retrofit operations; irrigation system installation; and improvements to outfall
• Existing vegetation removal/ replacements/ modifications to install underground vaults, handholes, pedestals, etc. in the Town Right-of-Way;
• Driveway cuts, full removal, and/or replacement;
• Pavement patching - trench (temporary and permanent patching);
• Minor traffic delays and/ or detours;
• Water service interruptions
• Construction noise during work hours (M-F 7:00AM-6:00PM, Saturday 9:00am-5:00pm).
