The Wesport Stormwater Improvements project in Kansas City's Westport neighborhood was initiated to address flash flooding that caused widespread property damage and posed serious public safety risks. Located in a combined sewer area, the project also supports Kansas City's federally mandated efforts to reduce combined sewer overflows (CSOs) and improve local water quality.
The $30 million project is currently under construction and is being delivered via a design-build approach, with Phase 1 set for completion before the 2026 FIFA World Cup and Phase 2 by May 2027.
