Alexandria's legacy combined sewer system was designed to overflow to nearby waterways on rainy days. A new diversion facility below the Pendleton Promenade will reduce these overflow events from 70 to less than 4 each year.
RiverRenew is the largest infrastructure project in Alexandria's history. Water that flows through the Pendleton Street diversion facility will enter the Waterfront Tunnel, which will direct flows to AlexRenew for treatment.
