A project long in the works to extend water and sewer service across Westport will be on the annual Town Election ballot on April 9. 

Voters will decide whether to exclude from Proposition 2½ the amount required to pay for the project. Though the ballot does not specify that amount, it is estimated to cost $35 million. 

The project is "the trunkline of Westport's future sewer system,” according to the project's website. The water and sewer line would cross Westport from Fall River to Dartmouth following Route 6, with four pump stations along the way to deliver sewage for treatment at Fall River’s system.
