Marquis Circle Drainage Improvements

Construction for this project began on April 6th, 2026. The contractors are on a good pace and are roughly on schedule. Currently, the drainage system has been tied into the new outfall and the old one has been abandoned. Crews are now focused on the remaining components such as installing the rest of the improved drainage system and sanitary sewer lines.

A public meeting to learn more about this project was held on Wednesday, March 11, 2026 from 6:00pm to 7:00pm at the Arlington Police Department - West District Center, located at 2060 West Green Oaks Boulevard, Arlington, TX 76013. There was a short presentation followed by a question and answer session.

The existing drainage system for this location is inadequate and has caused home flooding. Additionally, the outfall to Lake Arlington is failing and needs to be abandoned and rerouted to a new location. The proposed improvements will help capture more stormwater runoff within the City's right-of-way, decrease flooding risks for homes in the area, and replaced the current aging drainage system.

For this project, the contractor will provide as much access to your street as possible, however at times it may be necessary to temporarily limit access along either East or West Marquis Circle (not at the same time). The contractor will also notify you if your driveway needs to be reconstructed. This process involves limited access to driveways that will be coordinated with affected home owners. If emergencies arise, the contractor will work with you to the best of their abilities to grant you access.
