Sewer/Stormwater - The Port - City of Cambridge

This multi-phase program will reduce the frequency and extent of flooding and improve infrastructure in the Port neighborhood. The FY23 authorization and bond of $60,000,000 will support the construction of one underground sewer tank and one underground stormwater tanks with over one million gallons of storage, public art in the neighborhood, and reconstruction of the streets and sidewalks with an emphasis on designing streets for all users and supporting the City's commitment to Complete Streets, Vision Zero and the Urban Forestry Master Plan. A 15-member Working Group is advising city staff. While significant work remains to be completed, the program is already reducing flooding in the Port neighborhood. The Parking Lot 6 (PL6) stormwater tank at Bishop Allen Drive went into operation in May of 2021 and captured roughly 3,480,000 gallons of stormwater during the summer of 2021. Prior to the completion of this tank, the Port neighborhood would have experienced significant flooding as a result of these summer storms. This project is included in the city's FY 2024-2027 Capital Improvement Program. As of September 19, 2022, further details regarding design and construction timelines have not been identified. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
