ILF Consulting Engineers Polska will prepare project documentation for the investment of construction and reconstruction of stormwater drainage system and adaptation of rainwater drainage network to climate change in the city of Bydgoszcz. The project will be implemented on behalf of IDS BUD S.A.

The main aim of the project is to adjust the stormwater drainage system in Bydgoszcz to the current and planned land use. The investment is to protect the city against the effects of heavy rains and large amounts of rainwater and snowmelt – that is to minimize flooding of buildings and flooding of streets, as well as to enable water retention and its use in dry periods.

ILF Poland’s responsibilities include comprehensive design services, including preparation of the building permit design, detailed design and as-built documentation, as well as author’s supervision. The services also include consultations with administrators and municipal entities, obtaining a building permit or notification of work for the construction/ reconstruction of stormwater drainage systems and secondary collisions.

Construction and reconstruction of stormwater drainage system is a huge ecological investment carried out by the municipal waterworks – points out Beata Nepelska-Kula, Projects Department Director at ILF Consulting Engineers Polska. The works are conducted in particularly difficult conditions due to the city center – it is connected with dense buildings and utility infrastructure as well as the necessity to change the traffic organization. However, they are necessary to improve the quality of life in the city and have a real impact on the environment. We are glad that by using our design experience in similar investments, we can be a part of such an important project – she adds.

The project is co-financed by the European Union Cohesion Fund. The works are planned to be completed in 2022.
