Emergency call

On Oct. 31, a KTVN News photographer shot footage of emergency vehicles at Grove and Wrondel after a crew working on a sewer project hit a gas pipe. A concrete sewer installed in 1956 is being replaced with PVC pipe. The replaced sewer extends from Kietzke nearly to Virginia along Grove with offshoots on Yori and Flagg. The work began Aug. 21 and was scheduled to wrap up Oct. 24. It is now expected to be completed Nov. 17. Stores in the neighborhood say street closures associated with the project have slowed business to a crawl.
