    Manchester Cemetery Brook Drain Water Tunnel

    Manchester decides to start a two-phased process to select a contractor for the construction of the two-mile long Cemetery Brook Drain Water Tunnel.

    According to City of Manchester site, "Cemetery Brook is the main drainage basin for the city starting at Stevens Pond and discharging into the Merrimack River near Fisher Cats Stadium. A new drainage system will be constructed along the former railroad corridor from Mammoth Road southwest to Queen City Avenue to “separate” Cemetery Brook. The new drainage system will consist of an underground tunnel two miles long, 12-feet in diameter, and 30 to 80 feet deep".
