Manhattan: Vasconia to Obispo Flooding Relief-Phase 1

Primary Details

Description
This project involves the design and construction of a new drainage conveyance system, along with the replacement and upsizing of the existing stormwater infrastructure in a highly urbanized residential neighborhood in the City of Tampa. The area currently experiences frequent street flooding during both normal and high‑intensity rain events due to an old, undersized drainage system. The project is located along Manhattan Avenue at Vasconia Street and extends north to Obispo Street. In addition to the drainage upgrades, the project includes new water main improvements along the corridor to enhance reliability and service.
