A new project will address years of poor stormwater drainage on the near northeast side.  

The $18 million South Keystone Outfall project will improve consistent problems with drainage along a three mile stretch from Fall Creek to near Keystone Ave. The project is this year's largest for the Department of Public Works.

Large storm sewers will be installed at numerous locations to alleviate long time flooding issues in the area.  The work that includes 12 projects will also build new infrastructure in the Martindale-Brightwood neighborhood, including sidewalks and street resurfacing.
