City of Vancouver - Road Ahead - Event Details
Event:
Fraser Street Outfall Replacement
Location:
South end of Fraser Street, south of East Kent Avenue South
Expected Schedule:
Sep 1, 2025 - Dec 19, 2025
Status:
Construction Planning
Description:
This project will replace the aging storm sewer and outfall along Fraser Street south of E Kent Avenue with a new storm sewer and outfall structure. The new storm sewer is designed for increased flow anticipated from climate change and to accommodate future growth in the community by connecting a larger catchment area in the future. The outfall design includes a tide gate to prevent Fraser River water levels from entering the sewer system, and a platform structure for safe operations and maintenance. The design also includes raising the shoreline elevation to reduce the probability of Fraser River overtopping and is an incremental step towards sea level rise adaptation.
