Stormwater Inlet Rehabilitation Project

SAC Services Inc., will be working on the inlet located at 48th Avenue NW beginning 2/14/23. This work will require the closure of 48th Avenue NW between Robinson Street and West Rock Creek Road. The work had been delayed due to a traffic incident that resulted in damaged equipment on site. Work is expected to last a duration of 10 days. 

 

Questions about the construction may be directed to Jason Murphy at 405-366-5455 or jason.murphy@normanok.gov.

 

HISTORY OF THE PROJECT

The City of Norman’s Stormwater Division is responsible for the maintenance of a vast network of stormwater inlets, flumes, vegetated channels, and storm sewer lines. Many of the City’s inlets are decades old and built of brick and mortar. Over time, the brick and mortar inlets have demanded an outsized maintenance effort. Intent on reducing the maintenance burden, staff compiled a list of the inlets in most need of replacement. The list was further reduced to maximize effect and meet budgetary constraints. The locations of this project are listed below:

 

Oakhurst Avenue – Approx. 600’ South of Lindsay Street

Sundown Drive – Between Parkland Way and Morgan Drive

48th Avenue NW – Approx. 50’ South of Davinbrook Drive

East Gray Street – Approx. 250’ East of North Stewart Avenue

Tarman Circle – Approx. 380’ North of East Boyd Street

Hawks Nest Drive – Approx. 140’ East of Eagle Cliff Drive

Foxborough Court – Intersection of Litchfield Lane and Foxborough Court

 

This project involves replacement of the existing stormwater inlets. On 8/9/22 Norman City Council approved Contract K-2223-11 with SAC Services Inc., to complete the above listed work.
