CSAH 30 (Forest Blvd) reconditioning reaches Rush City plus water treatment plant upgrade
What's happening in Rush City right now
Chisago County's CSAH 30 (Forest Blvd) Reconditioning project runs the corridor all the way from Harris into Rush City this construction season — resurfacing, drainage work, and pavement repair on the road that connects Rush City to the I-35 corridor to the south (Chisago County Road Construction). On the utility side, Rush City is on the state's Drinking Water Revolving Fund priority list for a treatment plant/radium plant upgrade, and the city's airport recently received federal infrastructure funding as well (MN DEED Drinking Water Priority List; KBEK).
What this means for your drains
Rush City is a small town where the water and sewer mains running under Forest Blvd and the surrounding grid are old enough that the state has flagged the treatment plant itself for upgrades — a good indicator that the distribution and collection pipes feeding it aren't new either.
- Roots and offsets near Forest Blvd — resurfacing work along CSAH 30 disturbs boulevard trees and the ground around them; as roots die back from grading changes, they leave voids that older clay laterals settle into over the following seasons
- Aging main pressure changes — a treatment plant upgrade often means new pressure and flow patterns downstream; homes with old, marginal lateral pipe sometimes see leaks or backups show up for the first time once flow through the system changes
- Well-and-septic on the edges of town — outside the platted city sewer area, backups are typically in the drain line between the house and the septic tank — floor drains, laundry lines, kitchen lines — not the tank itself, and that's what we service
If you're along Forest Blvd or on the edge of the city sewer system
With CSAH 30 work moving through town and the state-flagged treatment plant upgrade on the horizon, this fall is a good window to get your lateral camera-scoped before winter — we hand you the video on a USB stick.
Call 612-382-7397 or book a camera inspection.
