Update on Topsail Road - St. Thomas Line Lift Station

The Town of Paradise today provided an update on the emergency repairs at the sanitary sewer lift station located on the corner of St. Thomas Line and Topsail Road.

The issue started Monday (August 12) evening, and crews have been on site working to complete the required repairs. The volume at this lift station is the largest in Town, and to keep the service operating while repair work is underway, pumper trucks and holding tanks are on site.

At this time, there is no direct impact to residents in Paradise, residents can still use their bathrooms and flush toilets. This lift station is for the sewer system, so there is no impact on the water system.

To facilitate the work, a section of St. Thomas Line, from Topsail Road to Carlingford Street, is closed and traffic is diverted through Carlingford Street. Traffic calming measures are in place on Carlingford Street and traffic control is in place during morning and evening peak traffic times.

The Town apologizes for the inconvenience caused and thanks residents for their continued patience as crews work to complete the repairs.
