Garfield Harrison Storm Drainage Improvements Construction Ends for 2023

Road, sidewalk, and landscape improvements completed

LOVELAND, Colo. – Oct. 10, 2023 – The City of Loveland has ended construction early of the Garfield Harrison Storm Drainage Improvements Project. Road paving, curb and gutter work and landscaping tasks were completed. Construction will restart in spring 2024.

This multi-year project is designed to implement several improvements to infrastructure in the area including:

• Replacing and upgrading existing stormwater infrastructure to address existing drainage issues and meet current stormwater standards.

• Install 18- to 60-inch diameter storm sewer pipes.

• Replace existing waterlines and valves to address aging infrastructure.

• Replace pavement including asphalt patching, milling, overlays, or full street reconstruction where project components are installed.

• Rehabilitate and replace concrete as well as add necessary ADA improvements.

• Provide stormwater quality treatment measures within the stormwater system.

The City has contracted Connell Resources as the project contractor and ICON Engineering for project design. The total project will be funded by the Stormwater, Water and Power Enterprise Funds. This project is part of the Stormwater Master Plan as well as the Water and Power Capital Improvement Program.
