Birch Briar street reconstruction rebuilds watermain and storm sewer this summer
What's happening in Plymouth right now
The 2026 Street Reconstruction Project covers the Birch Briar neighborhood and the Highway 55 frontage road between 15th Avenue and Cottonwood Lane, with full-depth rebuild, new concrete curb and gutter, storm sewer improvements, and watermain rehabilitation running from this summer through spring 2027. As of the May update, the contractor is actively installing watermain in the Birch Briar area, grading and building a storm sewer infiltration basin north of 9th Avenue, while CenterPoint Energy relocates gas mains at the same time. A separate 2026 Street Rehabilitation Project covering Zachary Lane, Holly Lane, and the Amhurst neighborhood is underway with watermain valve repairs and storm/sanitary manhole repairs; Zachary Lane has an active road closure as of this month.
What this means for your drains
Two separate reconstruction projects running at once, plus a third utility (gas) being relocated in the same trenches, means more underground activity than usual across Plymouth this season.
- Watermain and gas work sharing the same trench — in Birch Briar, CenterPoint's gas main relocation is happening alongside city watermain installation, so private laterals nearby are exposed to disturbance from two utility crews instead of one
- Mixed-era cast iron laterals — Plymouth's neighborhoods were built out across several decades, and much of the older housing stock near Birch Briar and Amhurst runs on cast iron laterals that are now decades past their original installation
- New infiltration basin changes drainage north of 9th Ave — grading for the new storm sewer infiltration basin reroutes surface water in that area, which can shift how nearby yard drains and sump discharge lines perform
If you're near Birch Briar, Zachary Lane, or Holly Lane
With Birch Briar work continuing into next spring and Zachary Lane closed now, a documented baseline before winter freeze gives you a record while the construction is fresh. We provide the video on a USB stick you keep.
Call 612-382-7397 or book a camera inspection.
