The North MacGregor Storm Sewer Relief Project between Brays Bayou and Fannin Street, raises the bar for future City of Houston construction projects. This very complex and difficult project will entail the installation of the largest transmission line ever installed by means of "tunneling" in the City's history!
The project was awarded to the General Contractor on May 11, 2004.

The project consists of construction of 3,350-linear feet of 13.5-ft diameter segmented concrete storm pipe, storm sewer inlets and leads, storm sewer junction structures, and dual 8-ft X 8-ft reinforced concrete box storm sewer outfall. The roadway pavement will be reconstructed full width concrete with curb and gutter. The work is to be completed in two phases. Phase 1 primarily consists of construction of the dual 8-ft X 8-ft reinforced concrete box storm sewer outfall at Brays Bayou, excavation and shoring installation to begin tunneling south of MacGregor Way, installation of the 60-in sanitary sewer diversion pumping system, construction of sanitary sewer junction boxes and associated piping, construction of storm sewer junction boxes and manhole tops, and tree root pruning. Phase 2 primarily consists of installation of temporary traffic control items, sidewalk signage, construction of the 13.5-ft diameter segmented concrete storm pipe by Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) from outfall at Brays Bayou to N MacGregor Dr. to Fannin St. The TBM will be extracted from the excavation via pit at the intersection of N MacGregor Dr. and Fannin St. and will be coordinated with on-going building construction on the Memorial Hermann Hospital campus at that location.
