Crews will be installing new sewer infrastructure and road reconstruction that will support future gowth and development in north Richland. According to a press release from the City of Richland:

The North Horn Rapids Sewer Extension Project will construct approximately 6,500 feet of sanitary sewer main and related infrastructure to expand sewer service capacity in the Horn Rapids area.
