REPETITIVE FLOODING EVALUATION; CITY OF BESSEMER, AL

A municipal client in Alabama called on STRADA to evaluate short-term and long-term solutions for resolving a community’s flooding issues. The scope of the project included evaluation of historical data, field observation of current conditions, evaluation of potential funding opportunities, and discussion with various stakeholders. A number of options were evaluated for reducing or eliminating future flood impacts within the community, including local, state, and federal funding. We also presented strategies for addressing all of the affected properties in the shortest possible time frame.
