Project Overview
The Broadview Park Green Infrastructure Stormwater Drainage Project will maximize on-site infiltration, storage, groundwater recharge and treatment of runoff. These improvements will reduce pollutant discharges to receiving waterways, decrease flooding, and minimize downstream erosion and sedimentation within the stormwater system.
Project Scope
The project delivers a comprehensive stormwater system upgrade throughout Broadview Park, including:
- Installation of approximately 50,000 cubic feet of underground exfiltration trenches to store and infiltrate stormwater.
- Construction of 2 new stormwater pump stations to increase system capacity and reduce flood duration.
- Replacement of 2,500 linear feet of undersized and aging stormwater infrastructure.
- Installation of 1,000 linear feet of new stormwater pipe.
- Addition of permeable asphalt pavement and permeable concrete sidewalks to reduce surface runoff.
- Restoration of landscaping and incorporation of green infrastructure features that mimic natural drainage and improve groundwater recharge.
These improvements work together to reduce surface flooding, shorten recovery time after storms, and improve overall system performance during heavy rainfall events.
