Buffalo Sewer Authority discusses upcoming project

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) — The Buffalo Sewer Authority is set to take on a major project on the city’s West Side this spring.

Crews are expected to replace sewer pipes that are over 100 years old as part of the Breckenridge Street Combined Sewer Overflow Project. The project will help mitigate the over eight million gallons of sewage flowing into the Black Rock Canal — most coming after heavy rainstorms.

The sewer authority hosted an open house on Saturday discussing the project. The project could take up to three years, and there will be detours posted while construction is happening.
