Detroit Basin/Gazelle Meadows Park Storm System and Associated Improvements

Project Owner: City of Chandler
Project Type: Construction Manager at Risk
Construction Dates: 11/23 to 05/25

This project addresses flooding issues by improving drainage in the area of Detroit Basin and Gazelle Meadows Park, and provides other much-needed improvements to water and sewer infrastructure in the surrounding neighborhood. It included:

• 34 manholes

• 36 catch basins

• 7,113 LF of ADS storm drain (12” to 36”)

• 1,042 LF of VCP sewer (8”)

• 308 LF of CIPP (8”)

• 1,905 LF of waterlines with valves and fittings (1”, 6”, and 12”)

• Replacement of concrete and asphalt

We installed more than 7,000 LF of large diameter storm drain, 36 catch basins, and 34 manholes in a residential area of Detroit Basin and Gazelle Meadows Park. This neighborhood has had flooding issues for years and we are proud to have worked with the City of Chandler and Entellus (design engineer) to improve storm drain conditions as well as other, much-needed water and sewer infrastructure. We are working with residents and stakeholders to maintain safety and access during construction.

We coordinated with subcontractors to add more than 3,500 SF of decorative crosswalk features. In several areas of Erie Street, the asphalt is stamped and colored to look like brick walkways. Before this work, we milled and paved 2,500 tons of asphalt on the street. At the park, we poured more than 2,000 SF of concrete sidewalk.
