I saw MSD digging up an alley in the near south and wanted to see if they list their projects anywhere. I wanted to get more details on what they're doing and if they would be doing the whole neighborhood.

Anyone know of any resources? 

Thanks

^ There may be some details on this thread regarding their overall plans.  But my guess is it's just routine maintenance.

Other than that you may find some information on MSD's site:

Boring for Metrolink would have been more exciting.

^Well, yes. But even this is quite useful. Sewage being treated before being dumped is good. And not backing up into basements is maybe even better.

More on the large overflow tunnels.  Pretty cool stuff.

Six-mile, $175 million MSD tunnel project on track, below south St. Louis County
https://www.stltoday.com/news/local/met ... -top-story
The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District is investing $175 million in the 6.8-mile Lower Meramec Tunnel, currently burrowing west toward Fenton. The effort is just one installment amid roughly $7.2 billion in area projects that the utility must complete to reduce sewage discharges into regional waterways, thanks to a decade-old legal agreement reached with the Environmental Protection Agency and others.

Less than a mile — or about 4,000 feet — of the tunnel has been excavated, so far. But officials say the project is on pace for its targeted completion date, and they expect the tunnel to be operational in 2025.
