This project includes the complete replacement of the concrete pavement along Capetown Drive, the rehabilitation or replacement of the wastewater line located under the Capetown Drive pavement, the replacement of the wastewater line located under the Tripoli Trail pavement, and drainage improvements along Capetown Drive and also along Tripoli Trail from Capetown Drive north to Juneau Drive.
