Crews replace rusted drainage pipe at Mistywood to improve runoff to Lake Lewisville
Summary
Workers at Mistywood described replacing a rusted underground metal pipe and upgrading drainage so stormwater will flow off the road and into Lake Lewisville, reducing the risk of roadway flooding.
Workers at the Mistywood site said they are replacing a rusted underground metal pipe system and upgrading the roadside drainage to direct stormwater to Lake Lewisville.
"The old metal pipe system that was in the ground had actually rusted out, so we are here replacing all that and upgrading the system," said Unidentified Speaker 1, who spoke on site. Unidentified Speaker 2 added that the drainage department maintains the drainage infrastructure and described the intended effect: "So when we get heavy rainfall, the water will drain off the road so the roads won't flood and the water will drain to Lake Lewisville."
The speakers emphasized quality-control steps taken during the work. "We always have to make sure our flow lines are correct, our rough lines are correct," Unidentified Speaker 1 said, adding that they aim for "a job done right the first time."
