There are two options proposed to direct stormwater into the new storm sewer system - a crowned or raised roadway with a traditional storm sewer system, and a roadway with a swale.

o Crowned Roadway – places the highest point of the roadway in the center and directs water to the curbs on either side. Inlets are placed in the gutter and allow for water to enter the storm sewer pipe which is under the roadway.

o Roadway with a Swale – Water is directed to the center of the roadway by sloping down from the gutter to a swale constructed in the center of the roadway. The swale is constructed with a concrete channel at the bottom with inlets placed along the channel allowing stormwater to enter the storm sewer pipe which is under the roadway. A swale is only being considered as an option along Evers Boulevard from Vandehei Avenue south to Bishop Boulevard.

SELECT THE ROADWAY OPTION YOU LIKE THE MOST AND THEN SUBMIT A COMMENT ON WHY YOU DON'T LIKE THE OTHER OPTION.
