East Side Storm Drain Improvements (76540)

The project intends to repair a limited number of structural deficiencies associated with the Pasadena East Side Storm Drain Channel. The channel was originally constructed in the early 1900’s and has been modified extensively since the original construction. The project intent is to extend the lifespan of the existing channel and improvement of structural deficiencies in the moderate to severe stages of failure as identified in the City of Pasadena Master Drainage Plan established in 2021. Access to the existing channel is limited and the entire length of channel is classified as a permitted confined space. This is the first phase of the structural retrofit to address deficiencies of the existing culvert between Elmira Street/Wright Avenue, and Mentor Avenue/Emerson Street. This project intends to establish repair procedures and strategies that can be used on future projects to repair other structurally deficient parts of the East Side Storm Drain and other storm drains within the City of Pasadena.
