Town of Pembroke Park to Begin Southwest 25th Street Stormwater Improvement Project
PEMBROKE PARK, Fla. – Flooding is an issue that is facing many South Florida communities, including the Town of Pembroke Park. As part of its ongoing efforts to upgrade its stormwater infrastructure, the Town will begin its planned SW 25th Street Improvement Project.
This project, which was developed from the Town’s Stormwater Master Plan study – will enhance the stormwater management system along SW 25th St. and includes upgrading the existing drainage pipes to improve water flow throughout the area. In addition, a stormwater pump station will be installed to further reduce peak water levels during flooding incidents. This project is scheduled to begin Monday, October 20, with an anticipated completion in October 2026.
Some project specifics include:
- SW 25th Street will be open to traffic during some phases of the project
- SW 25th Street will be closed to traffic tentatively from February 25, 2026 – May 15, 2026
- Park Lane will also be impacted and will be closed from 25th – 27th streets at various times during the project.
The overall goal of this year-long project is to mitigate water accumulation, improve road safety and protect nearby properties, as much as possible, form water damage.
