This project is estimated to be completed in September 2026, and includes the following improvements:

  • Storm drain installation
  • Sanitary sewer installation and maintenance
  • Limited water line relocations
  • Limited asphalt paving
  • Concrete driveway paving at some location.

This project is part of the City’s efforts to improve drainage infrastructure in Arlington neighborhoods and aligns with the City Council priority to Strengthen Our Communities. 

The existing drainage system for this location is inadequate and has caused some 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 stormwaters runoff within the City’s right-of-way, decrease flooding of risk for homes in the area and replace the current aging drainage system.

Want to learn more about this project?

Residents interested in learning more about this project are invited to participate in an informational meeting on Wednesday, March 11, 2026, at 6 p.m. at the Arlington Police Department - West Service Center, located at 2060 West Green Oaks Boulevard, Arlington, Texas 76013. There will be a short presentation followed by a question-and-answer session. Bring a neighbor!

The purpose of this meeting is to provide information and answer questions you may have about the construction. There will be a short presentation detailing the scope of the project followed by an opportunity to ask question about the project and how this project will benefit your neighborhood and the Arlington community.

Help us keep Arlington clean

The City of Arlington’s stormwater infrastructure consists of approximately 13,000 inlets, 625 miles of pipes and culverts, 190 bridges and 95 miles of improved channels.

Yard waste, litter, and other debris dumped into streets, inlets, storm drains, or creeks can cause flooding. The City spends over $1.2 million annually to clean up debris and litter from streets and stormwater infrastructure. Report illegal dumping at 817-459-6777 or use the Ask Arlington App.
