Primary Details
During high intensity and short duration rain events, low-lying areas in Golfview Neighborhood experience frequent and dangerous flooding due to an old and undersized drainage system. It often takes days to drain some of the flooded streets and vehicles are stranded in these flooded streets. This project consists of design and construction of a new drainage conveyance system as well as the replacement and upsizing of the existing drainage conveyance system in a highly urbanized residential neighborhood. Following the completion of Florida Department of Transportation’s drainage project on South Dale Mabry Highway between Henderson Boulevard and West Neptune Street, this project was proposed. The upsized drainage system will connect to the City’s recently completed Dale Mabry-Henderson Trunkline project at West Watrous Avenue and South Dale Mabry Highway. There will be opportunities to implement Green Infrastructure technologies and improve water quality with this project.
