Town Ditch Ph III

Location:

North of FM 518 and west of BNSF tracks

Estimated Completion Date

October 2010

Project Details

Construct capacity increases in the drainage conveyance system west of SH-35 providing for a 100 yr event and extend and realign the ditch between the BNSF railroad right of way and Mykawa Rd. This will include the installation of large box culverts along various locations, a crossing beneath the railroad tracks and the construction of new open channel with a 12 foot bottom in a 100 foot right of way.

Project Justification

The area north of FM518 and west of the BNSF tracks does not currently have adequate conveyance and outfall capacity to handle the 100 yr event. Improvements to the conveyence system down stream allow the ditches' upstream capacity to be increased, providing needed drainage to this developing area.
