Additional Backup Information: Austin Water is proposing the construction of approximately 3,400 linear feet of 36-inch wastewater line to facilitate the abandonment of the Springfield Lift Station, which is located within the 25-year floodplain of Onion Creek. The proposed project involves abandoning the Springfield lift station and installing a 3,300- foot-long, 36-inch gravity interceptor to connect to the existing Onion Creek Interceptor, potentially eliminating ongoing operational and maintenance costs. To minimize surface impact, including tree removal, trenchless construction methods will be utilized where applicable. Construction is scheduled to start in early 2025. Due to the potential for unknown subsurface conditions, a 10% contingency in funding has been included to allow for the expeditious processing of any change orders to cover any unforeseen construction costs associated with the project. If this contract is not approved, the Springfield Lift Station will remain at risk of flooding, leading to potential damage and ongoing sanitary sewer overflows during heavy rainfall. The contract allows 420 calendar days for completion of this project. This project is located within zip code 78744 (District 2). MARBLE CREEKONION CREEKONION CREEKDIXIE DRSALT SPRINGS DRASA DRTARA DRRHETT PLORLEANSDRRUNNING WATER DRE WILLIAM CANNON DRMARBLE RIDGE DRCOLTON BLUFF SPRINGS RDLAKE CHARLES DRZEQUIELDRONIONCREEKDRSPRING FEVER TRLORANGE BLOSSOM WAYSAILING BREEZE TRLREDRICKDRMARBLE CREST DRSPRINGTIME TRLGREEN GRASS TRLANTOINE CIRTHORNHILLDRFOY CIRWastewater: Approx. 3,317 LF¯0200400600800FeetProject Location: 3168.125 - South Area Lift Station ImprovementsItem:WAYMAKER WAYWESTLAKE DRWESTLAKE DRAIRPORT BLVDPLAZA ON THE LAKEAirport BlvdSpringdale RdMLK Jr. BlvdManor RdE. 7th St183William Cannon17171290River Place BlvdProject Limits3535183Martin Luther King Jr BlvdFile ID:24-6522 City of Austin Council Meeting Backup: January 30, 2025 M/WBE Summary Public notice was given for this solicitation, CLMC1066 for the South Area Lift Station Improvements: Springfield Lift Station Abandonment project, through the City’s Financial Services website, Austin Finance Online.
