Why there is work on a walkway along Municipal Drive

If you have been around the Nickel Plate District, near the Switch Building, you may seen crews working in a pedestrian are near Another Broken Egg restaurant.

Fishers City Spokesperson Stephanie Perry says the concrete in that area is being improved for drainage purposes.

“The original design of the courtyard storm drainage system was unable to remove all the water during heavy rains, which resulted in puddling on the north side of the area due to slope,” Perry told LarryInFishers. “To help with this problem we had a trench drain system designed and enlarged the branch lines to not only remove more water but also act as a water stop to help with the northward flow during those heavy showers.”

Look for canopies to be added over the windows and doors in that area, in an effort to reduce the amount of rain impacting the water filtration system
