The Garfield-Harrison Project is a large-scale master planned Stormwater project that began in January 2022. The City of Loveland has contracted with Connell Resources to build the Garfield Harrison Storm Drainage Improvements Project. The four separate phases are expected to take place over the next four years (approximately one phase per year.) The project addresses the multiple drainage problems caused by aging infrastructure in the west part of downtown Loveland. Partnering with other City departments and divisions within Public Works, waterline, sanitary sewer, street resurfacing, and various concrete repairs would allow additional improvements to the area and project.

The four-year project is designed to improve the following:

  • Implementation of the City of Loveland Master Drainage Plan
  • Replacing and upgrading existing stormwater infrastructure to address existing drainage issues and meet current stormwater standards
  • Installing 18- to 60-inch diameter storm sewer pipes
  • Replacing existing waterlines and valves to address aging infrastructure
  • Replacing pavement including asphalt patching, milling, overlays, or full street reconstruction where project components are installed
  • Rehabilitating and replacing concrete, as well as adding necessary ADA improvements
  • Disconnecting stormwater from the Little Barnes Ditch during Phase 4
  • Providing stormwater quality treatment measures within the stormwater system

The project is estimated to be completed by 2025 and once completed, the project will increase the capacity of the stormwater system and reducing localized neighborhood flooding. By partnering with Water Utilities and Transportation Engineering divisions, this will contribute to functioning waterlines that will reduce water leaks, replacing substandard curb and gutter, handicap access ramps, ADA improvements, lowering overly high street crowns, and re-surfacing of impacted streets.

Traffic Impacts

As we move to the next phase of the project, Phase 2C, residents in the area will experience construction noise and closures to install a large diameter stormsewer pipe. A full closure is expected from Sheridan Avenue and 5th Street. The closure will be for approximately two months, completing by the end of summer 2024. We understand construction can cause frustration and we will ensure public access is available as traffic enters and exits the construction zone. We appreciate your patience while this work is being performed and being part of Loveland's commitment to improving infrastructure. For immediate questions or concerns, you may contact us under the "Stay Informed" section below.
