Seattle Public Utilities has a new start date for culvert repairs at Lowman Beach Park: Tomorrow (February 4th). As noted here last week, the work originally was expected to start before the end of January. The basics:

Seattle Public Utilities (SPU) will be making repairs to a culvert located at Lowman Beach Park. The culvert conveys Pelly Creek and storm drainage to the outfall west of the tennis court at the park. The culvert at this location is damaged and requires repair to stop erosion of the surrounding soil. The repair work consists of excavating a portion of the damaged pipeline, repairing the broken pipe, and backfilling to surrounding grade.

The project will take about two weeks – 10 working days – with work expected to run 7 am-6 pm, Monday-Friday. Crews will access via the service road on the south side of the park. Meantime, the weekly seawall surveys promised by SPU as part of this already have begun and will continue for about three months.
