North Zone Expansion Improvement in Shoreline

15th Ave NE and 24th Ave NE

The main goal of this Shoreline Water District project was to extend the water main located at 15th Avenue NE and 24th Avenue NE by installing 540 feet of 4” ductile iron main (piping).

Originally, this project was scheduled to be performed as one facet of the North City Pump Station (NCPS) project. However early on in the project’s planning, Shoreline Water District learned of another project already scheduled for this same neighborhood: the City of Shoreline’s 2013 Transportation Overlay Program.

In response, we chose to separate this project from the North City Pump Station (NCPS) project, in order to have its construction completed prior to the start of the City’s road overlay project in late June. By working closely with the City to coordinate the timing and scope of our project, we were able to minimize disruption to the area’s residents while eliminating the cost of a double road overlay.

When the entire project is completed by BHC Consultants in July, this water main extension will improve water pressure for four residences by bringing them from the 590 zone up to the 615 zone.
