Presentation Overview:

The Breevort Park South Flood Control Project represents the City of Saskatoon's fourth major flood control initiative.  The catchment area surrounding Brevoort Park is highly prone to flooding during 1-in-10 year rainfall events, because the neighborhood was developed before 1989 and therefor lacks contemporary stormwater management standards.  To address this risk, an 8,600m3 underground StormTrap system spanning across 40m x 144m was adopted, the system incorporating 20 types of modules.  The project's central City location presented significant environmental and property related challenges, and the absence of on site yard space required extensive coordination for precast modules delivery and installation.  

During the design phases, comprehensive evaluations including structural loading assessments and buoyancy analyses were conducted.  Construction necessitated the excavation and temporary closure of South Park from February 2024 to October 2025.  Upon completion of the underground tank installation, the park will be fully restored, while North Brevoort Park remained open to the public throughout the project.
