Fassnight Creek stormwater improvement
1111 E. Brookside Drive
HDR Engineering Inc. is civil, structural, water resources and geotechnical engineer for a stormwater improvement project of Fassnight Creek at the Springfield Art Museum. Roughly 1,200 feet of concrete channel will be removed and replaced with a natural channel, officials say, beautifying the area with Missouri native plants and improving water quality and lowering the flood elevations. The $2.3 million project integrates a pedestrian trail in Phelps Grove Park, part of the museum’s master plan. HDR is also the landscape architect and surveyor. Hartman and Co. Inc. is general contractor, with the city of Springfield’s Department of Public Works serving as project manager. The work is slated for completion in summer 2022.
A safe room and classroom addition at Willard Central Elementary School will be used by the music, arts and athletic programs for a district that had 4,536 students last year, according to Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education figures, but school officials say enrollment is projected to grow.
