Project Type: Engineering/Design

Project Description:

This project consists of the design and construction of a storm drain to capture and convey stormwater from the Southern Hills area to a basin at the corner of 27th and South Mountain Avenues. This area was hit hard during the summer of 2014.

The storm drain will run along Olney Avenue from west of 23rd Avenue to 27th Avenue, extending north along 27th Avenue to South Mountain Avenue. It will outfall into the existing basin located at the northeast corner of 27th and South Mountain Avenues. The project also includes the design and construction of three retention basins along 23rd Avenue, south of Olney.
