Addendum One extends the submittal due date to August 9, 2023.
The northernmost right of way and travel lane of Barrancas Avenue experienced issues with standing stormwater issues as well as water overtopping the curb. This is due to the existing stormwater conveyance system being undersized for its contributing basin’s flow. This project will serve to increase the flow capacity of the conveyance system by installing additional inlets and upsizing the existing stormwater piping. As a bid alternate, the right of way will be fitted with bioretention cells to collect water from the travel lane. These bioretention cells no only provide relief for the overtaxed system but also provide stormwater treatment for a currently untreated drainage sub-basin within the Bayou Chico Watershed. As an additional bid alternate, this project is slated to incorporate new ECUA-owned sanitary sewer infrastructure at the Barrancas Ave and Main Street intersection. As a result of these improvements, work site safety, MOT, dewatering, maintenance/bypass of stormwater flow, and erosion control will be paramount issues.
General work to be accomplished will include installation of new storm structures, new storm pipe, curb and gutter and sod.
