Site work for a water / sewer project in Ankeny, Iowa. Conceptual plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

Improvements to address safety, capacity, functionality, sedimentation, erosion and associated issues within the existing drainage channel on the west/south sides of the High Trestle Trail from north of West 1st Street to NW State Street. The improvements may include clearing and grubbing to remove flow impediments, reshaping the channel to establish stable slopes, addressing diminished flow capacity, providing toe protection and establishing native/wetland plantings. Permanent drainage easements may need to be acquired in conjunction with this project. The purpose of this project is to stabilize the channel, re-establish flow capacity and remediate drainage and erosion issues which have caused safety, health and infrastructure concerns. The project costs are shown for the survey, concept plan and design work to be completed in 2021 with construction of the project scheduled in 2023 and 2024. This project will need to be coordinated with the Municipal Utilities Departments High Trestle Trail Water Transmission Main project which is proposed in the same corridor and on the same schedule.
