Detroit Water & Sewerage Dept. PLUS

Since December 3, 2021 we have reported service report number 92974. The sewer line has collapse and we have no connection to the main. We have tired to EEL cable 50 feet to the main and the line is not connected and cause the cable to be trapped. We are servicing water backup everyday wo any assistance from the city. We also completed the reimburse form and have not received any financial help. This is a emergency as its been over 40 plus days.

Ongoing issue. it's been years at this point.. sink hole over line
It's gotten way larger..

This sewer is located on the Westside of 17425 2nd Ave. Several vehicles had drove into this sunken sewer hole.

Road is caved in and there is a broken DWSD sign sitting in the hole

A sink hole that was originally reported TWO YEARS AGO(!) still has not been meaningfully addressed by the city. Ridiculous. Could cause significant property or personal damage. Please do something. At least cover it with a substantial steel plate.

A sinkhole developed after the flooding.

The Detroit Water and Sewerage Department had performed work at this location. Once the work was completed shortly their after the entire corner sunk causing damage to the entire curbside. It is a significant hazard to the public and it is a terrible trip hazard.

The barricade that was over this sunken sewer is now broken up and laying on the lawn from vehicles hit and driving over the barricade. Vehicle are still driving into the sunken sewer pit.

Deep cave-in making it dangerous when making a left turn in front of 5000 E McNichols at E Davison or passing in this lane in front of that building The address on the building shows 5000 E McNichols but GPS showing building at Fenelon address
