This project consisted of analysis and design to convert an existing grassed ditch to an articulating concrete block (ACB) lined facility. The existing grassed ditch was subject to frequent flooding due to grass clippings that were flushed and clogged the existing ditch bottom inlet (DBI) at the outfall. The ditch provides stormwater treatment in addition to stormwater conveyance from a pump station outfall located just north of Pembroke Road to the DBI located just south of Hollywood Boulevard, which drains to the Hollywood Canal and eventually outfalls into the C-10 Canal. A critical aspect of this project was maintaining stormwater conveyance from the City of Hallandale Beach and the Town of Pembroke Park during construction.

The project was completed on time and within budget, giving the FDOT and Broward County a higher level of flood protection during significant storm events, with reduced soil erosion and sedimentation potential.
