Timely and updated costing information
The objective of the current project is to reduce the risk of flooding in the Ottewell and area neighbourhoods. The Ottewell neighbourhood is primarily serviced with a mix of combined sanitary and storm lines, and some separate storm lines. There is no stormwater management facility in the neighbourhood, and the current overland (or surface drainage system) is not effective. There are several areas in this neighbourhood where water can pool during intense rainfall events, which puts the area at a higher risk of flooding. To reduce the flood risk, EPCOR will be constructing a dry pond in Ottewell Park and installing/upgrading various storm infrastructure throughout the neighbourhood. The project is currently in the Preliminary Design Phase with construction anticipated to occur 2024 – 2026, with a potential for early Works in 2023.
