Garfield Heights, OH
Great Lakes broke ground on the Cleveland Metroparks Garfield Culvert Replacement Project in late November 2025. Work began with excavation to locate the existing 22’ x 7’ concrete culvert carrying the flow of Mill Creek through Garfield Heights, followed by installation of a bypass pump station to divert water around the work area. Crews then demolished the existing headwall and 420’ of culvert, restored the subbase, and installed 165’ of 22’ x 7’ precast concrete culvert sections. The culvert was backfilled, a new headwall and wingwalls were constructed, and Garfield Parkway was restored. Remaining work includes stream restoration, final backfill, and landscaping, with substantial completion anticipated in the coming weeks.
