This project will provide drainage improvements along the Slick Ranch Creek from north of Marbach Road to south of SH 151. Improvements will include channel excavation to lower elevation and channel upgrades to remove 395 properties from the floodplain in this area. Joint-bid SAWS water and CPS Energy gas utility adjustments will also be included as part of this project. Construction is anticipated to begin in December 2022 and is estimated to be completed in November 2023.
