Three new projects meant to enhance New Bern’s stormwater drainage efficiency have been approved by the Board of Aldermen. The projects will affect the Duffyfield area as well as the North Glenburnie, Renny s Creek, Jack Smith Creek and downtown drainage basins.
The board approved a lease agreement with the North Carolina Railroad Company and Norfolk Southern Railway Company for construction related to the Duffyfield Wetlands Project. Phase 1 of the project calls for a discharge pipe under the railroad tracks located off of East Rose Street to be enlarged from four inches to 12 inches.
One of the first projects completed by the City of New Bern’s newly formed Stormwater Maintenance Division was improvements to the stormwater pond located on Biddle Street, in the Duffyfield neighborhood. City staff reconstructed the stormwater pond and enlarged it to four times its original size.
