Partner with Charlotte on Stormwater Management Projects

The project involves analysis of existing conditions to determine areas suitable for improvement, planning analysis of improvement alternatives, and the design and construction of the needed improvements in the Eastway Storm Drainage Improvement Project (SDIP) area.

The Eastway Storm Drainage Improvement Project is bordered by Arnold Drive to the north, Central Avenue to the south, Temple Lane to the east and Eastway Drive to the west.  This project area is within a drainage area of approximately 200 acres and the improvements may include pipe system upgrades and channel improvements.

This construction will improve site conditions at the Zone 3 Field Operation facility. Construction work will include stormwater settling basins, stormwater conveyance, and various site improvements. The design is already complete.

This construction project is located just east of downtown along an unnamed tributary to Little Sugar Creek on Louise Ave. The purpose and need for the 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.

Collective Storm Drainage Improvement Projects Series AC will involve 3 projects throughout the City of Charlotte, 1925 Arnold Dr, 10112 Fairway Ridge, and 1127 Willhaven Dr.  1925 Arnold Dr will involve new drainage structures and reinforced concrete pipe, a modified pipe alignment, new curb and gutter, concrete driveway replacement, sanitary sewer replacement as well as full depth asphalt replacement along Arnold Dr.  10112 Fairway Ridge will involve new drainage structures and elliptical reinforced concrete pipe, a modified pipe alignment, sanitary sewer replacement, concrete driveway and full depth asphalt replacement along Fairway Ridge.  1127 Willhaven Dr will consist of reinforced concrete pipe and drainage structure installation, ditch grading, full-depth asphalt replacement as well as curb and gutter replacement along Willhaven Drive.  There will be 2 culvert replacements not located along Willhaven Drive, 1 will be a driveway culvert located at 5328 Randolph Rd and the other will be crossing under Crestbrook Drive.  Both culverts will consist of reinforced concrete pipe, drainage structures, asphalt replacement, and channel grading.  The culvert under Crestbrook Drive will also require curb and gutter as well as sidewalk replacement.

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.

This project is bordered by Highway I-85 to the north, Cinderella Road to the south, Echo Glen Road to the east, and West Sugar Creek Road to the west.  The drainage system consists of open channel and closed pipe systems underneath city-maintained roads.  This was previously identified as a major capital project from the watershed ranking prioritization process, scoring 73 of 100.  The ranking protocol identifies 18 structures that experience flooding in the 100-year storm event and 7 roads that experience transverse overtopping events that do not meet current standards.  The entire neighborhood has received a patchwork of repairs over the years and a holistic project is needed to cost beneficially address the drainage system issues.

The 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 a collective package of 7 small Storm Drain Improvement projects that will be constructed under one contract.  This project package is under review and location and project details will be provided after review is complete.

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 located near the intersection of Camp Greene Street and Freedom Drive.

This construction project is located near The Plaza and Shamrock Drive and has been identified to address flooding, erosion, and pipe failure in the project area.

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 storm drainage improvement project is for the area in and around Hill Street.  The construction project boundaries are Tryon Street to the southeast, Trade Street to the northeast, South Cedar Street and West 1st Street to the north, and Palmer Street to the southwest. The project includes storm drainage improvements that reduce house and street flooding or will repair failing infrastructure.

This project consists of two culverts in series under Cedarbrook Drive and Denbur Drive. Both culvert crossings consist of triple barrel corrugated metal pipe systems. This is a project that was identified by the asset management team and both culvert crossings are actively failing, and preliminary calculations show that the culverts are also undersized.
