Partner with Charlotte on Stormwater Management Projects

Work performed under this contract will consist of storm water infrastructure repair and improvement projects within the city limits of Charlotte, NC.  Work will involve mobilization, earthwork, drainage structures, storm drain pipe systems, and channels. Work could also include working over, under, near, and around existing private utilities, asphalt paving, concrete flatwork, landscaping and any associated work required by the Engineer.  Other work may include structural foundation protection, storm water pipe lining, storm water pipe joint and structure repair, water and sewer (relocations, installations and adjustments).  Storm Water maintenance work may be located entirely within the street right-of-way or within storm drainage easements.

Project started due to surface depressions along roadway. City plans to remove and replace corrugated metal pipe with 83 linear feet (LF) of 8’ x 4’ reinforced concrete box culvert; remove and replace two headwalls; remove and replace 311 LF of 15″ reinforced concrete pipe (RCP); remove and replace 42 LF 24″ RCP; remove and replace 27 LF 18″ RCP; bank grading; and remove and replace 85 LF 10” ductile iron pipe of sewer.

The purpose and need for this construction project is to improve the storm drainage infrastructure (i.e. pipe systems and culverts) to reduce flooding and to enhance degraded stream reaches to reduce erosion and improve water quality.  This project is under review.  Location and project details will be provided after review is complete.

The scope of this project will be the installation of approximately 160 LF of concrete block retaining wall to address severe bank erosion.

The Gleneagles Project is primarily focused on replacing an existing CMP culvert near 3810 Gleneagles Road.  The existing culvert is 8.7’ high by 7.8’ wide and is being replaced with a 10’ wide and 7’ tall RCBC.  The culvert replacement is occurring to address aging infrastructure and to improve the reliability of infrastructure for the traveling public.  In support of this culvert replacement, we are dredging the downstream pond which is located on the Quail Hollow Country Club near the 15^th hole.  The dredging will remove sediment that has built up near the downstream end of the existing culvert and prevent sediment transport downstream which would negatively impact existing ponds and habitats.  In addition, we will be adding inlets and upgrading roadside drainage on Out-Of-Bounds Drive which has significant spread in larger storm events from road drainage.  The work on Out-Of-Bounds Drive will increase the safety of the traveling public using that roadway during rain events.

Project initiated to address a failing 48” CMP culvert. The culvert crosses a high hazard dam with deficiency’s that will be addressed by a private HOA. The city intends to install approx. 80LF of 48” RCP and tie into an existing concrete flume; remove and replace approx. 40LF of 15” RCP; add (1) DCB; add (2) CBs; add (1) winged headwall

Project consists of removing a gabion wall and replacing it with a new segmental block wall.  Minimal stream impacts will be made only to install wall. Partial storm system in ROW will be removed and replaced with no outfall impacts.

Moorland Dr is a double barrel culvert that is undersized. We are planning to upsize the culvert to a 12’x5’ box culvert

The purpose and need for this construction project is to improve the storm drainage infrastructure (i.e. pipe systems and culverts) to reduce flooding and to enhance degraded stream reaches to reduce erosion and improve water quality.  This project is under review.  Location and project details will be provided after the review is complete.

The Craighead/Tryon Storm Drainage Improvement Project is bordered by Glory Street to the north, Little Sugar Creek to the south, Sugar Creek Road to the east and Craighead Road to the west. The existing drainage system consists of pipe system under city-maintained road, state-maintained road, and private property. The improvements include pipe system upgrades.

Project proposed to replace an existing culvert system under Harwyn Dr. with 2 – 3×5 box culverts, as well as a pipe cleaning effort through the triple 54” RCP culvert at downstream Eaves Ln.
