Staff continues to monitor minor settlement at these two radii, which could not be surcharged and wick drained during construction. Once the minor settlement has ceased, we plan to install a hooded grate inlet or concrete flume at the low point of these radii to provide positive drainage from the roadway and repave as necessary.
