Spencer Street Drainage System Replacement - 23-ENG-04 - Town of Smithfield

Site work for a water / sewer project in Providence, Rhode Island. Conceptual plans call for site work for a water / sewer project. Replace an existing drainage system that is failing faster than can be repaired. The system in question is estimated to the original construction of the plat, c.1958 and was added to at some point in time, estimated c.1970s. The system is poorly laid out in private property without existence of easement, failing in multiple locations due to offset pipe joints and numerous repairs have been attempted to be made by this department and the public works department since 2010. The system has gotten to the point that is should be replaced. Replacement may likely involve relocating the pipe in the public right-of-way and out of the private properties where it currently lies. The system will need to be surveyed, engineered, permitted and constructed. Proper drainage conveyance in this neighborhood is critical as all of Woods Plat (north of Route 44) essentially conveys through this system (estimated 750 acres of contributing residentially developed land area). This project is in included in the Town of Smithfield FY 2023-2027 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). As of June 29, 2022, further details regarding design and construction have not been identified. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
