The City of Lubbock utilizes our Master Drainage Plan (MDP) and drainage studies to help address development and drainage problems within the City. With the ongoing development, annexations, and future development and existing drainage problems, updated drainage studies are warranted.
Updating the drainage studies will allow the City of Lubbock Engineering Department to identify areas of concern that could be addressed with Drainage Capital Improvement Projects. These updated studies will identify issues that are occurring now or that might present problems in the future. Projects will be determined, prioritized, and studied for feasibility by potential drainage and flooding problems. Proactive solutions will be developed to provide an effective and efficient storm water management system.
