Faber Construction’s civil team has successfully completed the North Burlington Pipeline project, a critical infrastructure upgrade undertaken in collaboration with Skagit PUD and the City of Burlington. This project involved the installation of 7,400 linear feet of new waterline, replacing a failing system and ensuring a reliable water supply for the community for decades to come.

Enhancing Infrastructure for the Future

The project was vital for modernizing Burlington’s aging water infrastructure. By replacing the deteriorating system, the city now has a reliable and sustainable water network that will serve its residents and businesses for decades to come. This upgrade not only improves the city’s current infrastructure but also lays the groundwork for future development projects.

Overcoming Challenges with Expertise

Like many infrastructure projects in older cities, the North Burlington Pipeline project presented several challenges. Faber Construction encountered unexpected underground conditions, including contaminated soils, buried roadways, and even railroad ties that had been left in place and built over. Navigating these obstacles required adaptive problem-solving, careful planning, and close collaboration with local agencies to ensure safe and efficient progress.

Building Stronger Relationships

A key highlight of this project was the strengthened relationship between Faber Construction, Skagit PUD, and the City of Burlington. The successful collaboration has set the stage for future partnerships, and positive connections were formed with local businesses and residents, such as Double-N Potatoes, fostering community engagement and support.
