The City of Bend is constructing a new gravity sewer main along Cooley Road and Ranch Village Drive. This new line will connect to existing infrastructure west of the Cooley Road and 18th Street intersection, optimizing our community's sewer system.

Resident Connections
As part of the project, sewer laterals will be installed. These laterals will allow residents currently using private onsite septic systems to connect directly to the City’s gravity main, providing improved service and reliability.

Pump Station Decommissioning
The existing Phoenix Pump Station on Ranch Village Drive will be decommissioned once the new gravity main is operational. This step will reduce long‑term maintenance needs and improve system efficiency
