Dutch Branch Park Drainage Assessment and Improvement Project - During heavy
rains, stormwater flows across the ball fields and running track damaging infrastructure
and ponding in low areas. The project evaluates the drainage patterns in the park and
recommends grading improvements that minimize disturbances to the existing
infrastructure while allowing water to safely flow through the park.

Cedar Creek Townhome Drainage Project – The Cedar Creek Townhomes are
located in northeast Benbrook between Bellaire Drive and a natural oxbow of the Trinity
River. During heavy rain events, water flows have eroded soil and undermined the
structural integrity of the City’s drainage outfall at this location. The project includes
removal of the existing headwall and extending the storm drain back in line with the
bank of the oxbow. A new headwall will then be constructed at the outfall and the area
above the extended pipe will be backfilled.

Timberline Drainage Project - Several local streets that directly connect to Timberline
Drive significantly flatten out prior to their connection to the collector street. As a result,
stormwater ponds on the local streets. The project will extend storm drainpipes from the
Timberline Drive system to the local streets. New stormwater curb inlets will be installed
on the local streets allowing stormwater that would previously pond to flow into the storm
drain system.

Plantation East Channel Project – Sediment has built up over the years and needs to
be removed from the channel bottom to allow for better water flow. The project scope
includes the repair of missing or damaged perforated blocks that armor the channel
bottom.
