Overview

The Town of Cary budgets annually to restore or replace deteriorating sewer mains. Typically, replacement is the best option. Six-inch diameter lines that are in poor condition are too small to maintain adequately. Larger lines may need replacement if defects have occurred or the area they serve has grown.
