Euclid Avenue 1818 Storm Drainage Improvement Project

The project involves analysis of existing conditions to determine portions of the storm drainage system needing improvement, and design and construction of needed improvements. The existing storm system experienced a pipe collapse due to poor condition of the pipe. To address the request and meet level of service design standards the project will remove and replace the existing Storm Drainage Infrastructure within the project scope.
Proposed improvements include removing approximately 343 LF of 18″ storm water pipe and replace with approximately 410 LF of 24″ storm water pipe, add 2 double catch basins and associated items, and remove and replace approximately 357 LF of 8″ sewer pipe, and 3 sewer manholes.

Storm Water Repair and Improvement FY2026G

Work will involve mobilization, earthwork, drainage structures, storm drain pipe systems, channels, working over, under, near, and around existing private utilities, asphalt paving, concrete flatwork, and 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 or a combination of the street right-of-way, private, residential and commercial properties.

IRIS DRIVE STORM DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENT PROJECT

The Iris Drive Storm Drainage Improvement Project involves removal of existing retaining wall and installation of erosion control measures; installation of a new retaining wall; milling, resurfacing, and restriping of existing parking lot; installation of wheelstops and installation of curb; installation of a stormwater manhole, catch basin, and associated pipe. Stream improvements include addition a boulder toe, rock sills, and plantings along portions of the stream. The estimated cost of this project is $ 521,500.00.

FY2026 and FY2027 Various Storm Water Services Projects

The following is a general description of the Scopes of Service included in this RFQ. The selected firms will use HEC-HMS, HEC-RAS, and/or a hydraulic grade line closed system computer model, or an approved alternative (SWMM) method. All methods will be in accordance with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Design Manual. The City’s then current AutoCAD standards will be used for production of all plans and profiles.

 

Work will be issued via written Task Orders, which will specify the requirements of the various projects. Multiple Task Orders may be issued for each project. Multiple Task Orders may be issued at once.  The City of Charlotte reserves the right, upon successful completion of a given Task Order, to issue subsequent Task Orders to the same or a different Company.

 

The below list provides a general list of the tasks required. Task orders may include any of the following:

 

  • Surveying, utility locating, and PACP stormwater asset inspections.
  • Existing and Proposed Conditions Analyses
  • Channel Stabilization and/or Restoration
  • Utility Coordination
  • Easement/Plat Preparation
  • Public Engagement
  • Preliminary and final design
  • Permitting/Encroachments
    (404/401, NCDOT, Railroad Agencies and FEMA Floodplain Development Permitting)
  • Preparation of Construction Documents (Plans, Specifications, and Cost Estimates)
  • Bid and Construction Phase Services
  • Geotechnical and Structural Engineering Services

 

The city anticipates selecting multiple firms to provide these services. These will be drainage area-based storm drainage improvement projects that involve differing land uses within the project areas. Drainage basins may include closed and open systems. The study areas may be on a portion of the watershed or the entire watershed. Task orders may be issued for multiple projects at once. Upon satisfactorily completing a task order, the City may issue additional task orders. Scoping on these projects is anticipated to begin in early 2026.

Gleneagles Storm Drainage Improvement Project

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 15th 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.
