[ARCHIVED] Stormwater System Assessment project begins August 25, 2025

Public Service Announcement 

Stormwater System Assessment project begins August 25, 2025 

Aspen, CO – The city of Aspen, in partnership with Pro Pipe, will begin stormwater pipe cleaning as part of ongoing efforts to maintain and improve our infrastructure. This work is essential to help protect water quality and keep our river clean and healthy. Work will begin the week of August 25, 2025, and continue for six weeks. 

Crews will use a vacuum truck to clean stormwater lines and access manholes and city easements. Work will take place east of Mill Street and along Highway 82 at the roundabout through mile marker 38. 

While minimal, temporary impacts to traffic, parking, and noise are expected, crews will not remain in one location for more than a day and will work to minimize any disruptions to residents and businesses. 

Thank you for your patience as we complete this important work.
