Project Background
On May 6, 2017, San Antonio voters approved the City of San Antonio's 2017-2022 Bond Program, of which $24,000,000.00 was approved for drainage improvements associated with the Port San Antonio Project. These funds are being used toward construction of the project, construction oversight and the reimbursement of construction phase design services and utility adjustments.
In partnership with the City, the Port Authority of San Antonio agreed to manage and fund the design phase of the project, including the necessary environmental services, and manage the preconstruction utility adjustments. In return, the City agreed to manage and fund the construction phase of the Port San Antonio Project and fund the preconstruction utility adjustments. After construction is complete, the improvements will continue to be maintained by the Port Authority of San Antonio.
This project is a continuation of the City of San Antonio's commitment to provide an adequate storm water system on the Port Authority of San Antonio's property to reduce on-going flooding risks. The project expands the 36th Street Phase IIIB (Billy Mitchell to General Hudnell) drainage infrastructure built as part of the 2012 General Obligation Bond. Project construction began in February 2019 and is estimated to be completed by March 2021.
