The Hamilton County Surveyor’s Office and the City of Carmel will launch a drainage improvement project in the Home Place area in a shared partnership project to help address a history of chronic poor drainage, roadway and roadside ditch flooding and standing water.
The project will take place along the Clara Knotts Regulated Drainage area and will be focused in an area bordered by New Jersey Street to the west, College Avenue to the east, 103rd Street to the north, and 102nd Street to the south.
Work is expected to begin in February with an anticipated completion date of May 1, weather and utilities permitting. New storm water pipes will be installed along several roadways including portions of Broadway Avenue, Park Avenue, and 102nd and 103rd streets. All of the work will take place in areas where utility easements exist.
Intermittent, short-term roadway closures are expected in order to install the pipes crossing the roads.
