Site work for a water / sewer project in Covington, Louisiana. Conceptual plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

Project to improve the conveyance of the roadside drainage within the Spanish Trail Heights Subdivision. The area currently sees standing water inmost of the roadside ditches resulting in decreased capacity to handle additional runoff from rainfall events. Project has been phased based on scope of work and drainage areas within the subdivision. Phase 1 includes improvements to Lemos St., Desoto St., Escondido St., and Gayoso St. Phase 2 includes Almonaster St. and Short St. Status: Project is at 60% design. Project is currently in final design with expected design completion in 2023, and will be ready for construction in late 2023. Following preliminary design completion, the total estimated construction cost exceeded the amount budgeted; therefore, additional funds are needed to meet construction cost. This project is included in the Saint Tammany Parish's FY 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Program. As of March 19, 2024, further details regarding firm construction and completion timelines have not been identified. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
