Downtown drainage project - Phase II

When the customer was ready for round 2, we moved fast to beat the rains that were headed our way that same evening.  It was a definite rush to action and we beat the weather but just a couple hours.

HERE is a description of Phase 1 of the project.

On Phase II, the customer wanted an unsightly hill taken down on his yard.  Turn out, it was full of construction debris and lots of concrete refuse. You can see the hill in red in this picture. He also wanted it to roughly match grade with the blue circled area in the center right of the pic.

After I was finished with the project, I drove by the next day during the rain to see how things looked.  Drainage was PERFECT, just as we'd spec'd out.

The water used to back up and cover almost the entire concrete part of this driveway.

There was no longer ponding in the yard, either.

The view from the street shows a very even flow through the entire area.
